PVOs, and so the modified state of the page can no longer be communicated
to the VM layer, causing pages not to be flushed to swap when needed, in
turn causing memory corruption. Also make several correctness adjustments
to I-Cache synchronization and TLB invalidation for 64-bit Book-S CPUs.

This patch basically gives us the best of both worlds. Instead of
forcing the compiler to emulate GNU-style inline semantics even though
we're using ISO C99, it will only use GNU-style inlining when the
compiler is configured that way (__GNUC_GNU_INLINE__).

Getting the little-endian PCI bus working on the big-endian CPU proved to be
quite challenging. We let the PCI devices be mapped in the "match byte lanes"
address window. This is where they are mapped by the CFE and DMA transfers
generated to or from addresses within this window are not subject to automatic
byte-swapping.
However any access by the driver to memory-mapped pci space is redirected
via the "match bit lanes" address window. We get the benefit of automatic
byte swapping through this address window and drivers don't need to change
to deal with CPU big-endianness.
module. With r203732 it became apparent that creating the sysctl nodes
twice causes at least a warning, however the whole code shouldn't be
present twice in the first place.

o uses v4 firmware instead of v3. A port will be committed to create
the bwn firmware module.
o supports B/G and LP(low power) PHYs.
o supports 32 / 64 bits DMA operations.
o tested on big / little endian machines so should work on all
architectures.
It'd not connected to the build until the firmware port is committed.
o Eliminate IA64_PHYS_TO_RR6 and change all places where the macro is used
by calling either bus_space_map() or pmap_mapdev().
o Implement bus_space_map() in terms of pmap_mapdev() and implement
bus_space_unmap() in terms of pmap_unmapdev().
o Have ia64_pib hold the uncached virtual address of the processor interrupt
block throughout the kernel's life and access the elements of the PIB
through this structure pointer.
This is a non-functional change with the exception of using ia64_ld1() and
ia64_st8() to write to the PIB. We were still using assignments, for which
the compiler generates semaphore reads -- which cause undefined behaviour
for uncacheable memory. Note also that the memory barriers in ipi_send() are
critical for proper functioning.
With all the mapping of uncached memory done by pmap_mapdev(), we can keep
track of the translations and wire them in the CPU. This then eliminates
the need to reserve a whole region for uncached I/O and it eliminates
translation traps for device I/O accesses.
With FBS enabled, we have no idea what command caused timeout.
Implement same logic as in siis(4) - wait for other commands
complete or timeout and then give some more time.
