understands FPU hardware enough to catch SIGFPE and unmask exceptions
in control word, then it may as well properly handle return from
SIGFPE without causing an infinite loop of #MF exceptions due to
faulting instruction restart, when needed.
Clearing exceptions causes information loss for handlers which do
understand FPU hardware, and struct siginfo si_code member cannot be
considered adequate replacement for en_sw content due to translation.
Supposed reason for clearing the exceptions, which is IRQ13 handling
oddities, were never applicable to amd64.
Note: this change will be merged to i386 kernel as well, since we do
not support IRQ13 delivery of #MF notifications for some time.

Append '__' prefix to the tag of struct oflock, and put it under BSD
namespace. Structure is needed both by libc and kernel, thus cannot be
hidden under #ifdef _KERNEL.
Move a set of non-standard F_* and O_* constants into BSD namespace.
SUSv4 explicitely allows implemenation to pollute F_* and O_* names
after fcntl.h is included, but it costs us nothing to adhere
to the specification if exact POSIX compliance level is requested by
user code.
Change some spaces after #define to tabs.

For now, the only module implement is 'sample', and that's only partially
implemented. The main issue here with reusing this structure in userland
is that it uses 'rix' everywhere, which requires the userland code to
have access to the current HAL rate table.
For now, this is a very large work in progress.
Specific details:
* The rate control information is per-node at the moment and wrapped
in a TLV, to ease parsing and backwards compatibility.
* .. but so I can be slack for now, the userland statistics are just
a copy of the kernel-land sample node state.
* However, for now use a temporary copy and change the rix entries
to dot11rate entries to make it slightly easier to eyeball.
Problems:
* The actual rate information table is unfortunately indexed by rix
and it doesn't contain a rate code. So the userland side of this
currently has no way to extract out a mapping.
TODO:
* Add a TLV payload to dump out the rate control table mapping so
'rix' can be turned into a dot11 / MCS rate.
* .. then remove the temporary copy.

amd64. It is implemented as __pure2 inline with non-volatile asm read
from pcpu, which allows a compiler to cache its results.
Convert most PCPU_GET(pcb) and curthread->td_pcb accesses into curpcb.
Note that __curthread() uses magic value 0 as an offsetof(struct pcpu,
pc_curthread). It seems to be done this way due to machine/pcpu.h
needs to be processed before sys/pcpu.h, because machine/pcpu.h
contributes machine-depended fields to the struct pcpu definition. As
result, machine/pcpu.h cannot use struct pcpu yet.
The __curpcb() also uses a magic constant instead of offsetof(struct
pcpu, pc_curpcb) for the same reason. The constants are now defined as
symbols and CTASSERTs are added to ensure that future KBI changes do
not break the code.

data introduced in r236061. Using that flag doesn't make that much
sense on this case as the DMA maps using it are also created during
sym_pci_attach(). Moreover, due to the maxsegsz parameter used, doing
so may exhaust the bounce pages pool on architectures requiring
bounce pages. [1]
While at it, use a slightly more appropriate maxsegsz parameter.

TX descriptor link pointers.
This is required for the AR93xx and later chipsets.
The RX path is slightly different - the legacy RX path directly
accesses ath_desc->ds_link for now, however this isn't at all done
for EDMA (FIFO) RX.
Now, for those performing a little software archeology here:
This is all a bit sub-optimal. "struct ath_desc" is only really relevant
for the pre-AR93xx NICs - where ds_link and ds_data is always in the
same location.
The AR93xx and later NICs have different descriptor layouts altogether.
Now, for AR93xx and later NICs, you should never directly reference
ds_link and ds_data, as:
* the RX descriptors don't have either - the data is _after_ the RX
descriptor. They're just one large buffer. There's also no need for
a per-descriptor RX buffer size as they're all fixed sizes.
* the TX descriptors have 4 buffer and 4 length fields _and_ a link
pointer. Each frame takes up one TX FIFO pointer, but it can contain
multiple subframes (either multiple frames in a buffer, and/or
multiple frames in an aggregate/RIFS burst.)
* .. so, when TX frames are queued to a hardware queue, the link
pointer is ONLY for buffers in that frame/aggregate. The next frame
starts in a new FIFO pointer.
* Finally, descriptor completion status is in a different ring.
I'll write something up about that when its time to do so.
This was inspired by Linux ath9k and the reference driver but is a
reimplementation.

The DMA FIFO chips (AR93xx and later) differ slightly to th elegacy
chips:
* The RX DMA descriptors don't have a ds_link field;
* The TX DMA descriptors have a ds_link field however at a different
offset.
This is a reimplementation based on what the reference driver and ath9k
does.
A subsequent commit will enable it in the TX and beacon paths.
