TSF write.
The TSF_L32 update is fine for the AR5413 (and later, I guess) 11abg NICs
however on the 11n NICs this didn't work. The TSF writes were causing
a much larger time to be skipped, leading to the timing to never
converge.
I've tested this 64 bit TSF read, adjust and write on both the
11n NICs and the AR5413 NIC I've been using for testing. It works
fine on each.
This patch allows the AR5416/AR9280 to be used as a TDMA member.
I don't yet know why the AR9280 is ~7uS accurate rather than ~3uS;
I'll look into it soon.
Tested:
* AR5413, TDMA slave (~ 3us accuracy)
* AR5416, TDMA slave (~ 3us accuracy)
* AR9280, TDMA slave (~ 7us accuracy)
on the 802.11n NICs.
The 802.11n NICs return a TBTT value that continues far past the 16 bit
HAL_BEACON_PERIOD time (in TU.) The code would constrain nextslot to
HAL_BEACON_PERIOD, but it wasn't constraining nexttbtt - the pre-11n
NICs would only return TU values from 0 -> HAL_BEACON_PERIOD. Thus,
when nexttbtt exceeded 64 milliseconds, it would not wrap (but nextslot
did) which lead to a huge tsfdelta.
So until the slot calculation is converted to work in TSF rather than
a mix of TSF and TU, "make" the nexttbtt values match the TU assumptions
for pre-11n NICs.
This fixes the crazy deltatsf calculations but it doesn't fix the
non-convergent tsfdelta issue. That'll be fixed in a subsequent commit.
Rasperry Pi firmware has a set of hardcoded pathes it uses to fill
FDT with system-specific information like display resolution, memory
size, UART and SDHCI clocks, ethernet MAC address. Handle two of them:
- Add placeholder for ethernet MAC address
- Move display node out of "axi" node
... instead of the ever increasing ones.
Also, do free old resources when allocating new ones when cx states
change.

vnode and following back the chain of n_parent pointers up to the root,
without acquiring the locks of the n_parent vnodes analyzed during the
computation. This is immediately wrong because if the vnode lock is not
held there's no guarantee on the validity of the vnode pointer or the data.
In order to fix, store the whole path in the smbnode structure so that
smbfs_fullpath() can use this information.

- The feature is dangerous because the kernel code didn't check
validity of the memory address provided from user space.
- It seems that mdconfig(8) never really supported attaching preloaded
memory disks.
- Preloaded memory disks are automatically attached during md(4)
initialization. Thus there shouldn't be much use for the feature.

This is the missing piece for FreeBSD/Wii, but there's still a lot of
work ahead. We have to reset the MMU in locore before continuing
the boot process because we don't know how the boot loaders might
have setup the BATs. We also disable the PCI BAT because there's no PCI
bus on the Wii.

the unix domain sockets to the next tick, coalescing the serial calls
until the collection fires. The thought is that more work for the
collector could arise in the near time, allowing to clean more and not
spend too much CPU on repeated collection when there is no garbage.
Currently the collection task is fired immediately upon unix domain
socket close if there are any rights in flight, which caused excessive
CPU usage and too long blocking of the threads waiting for
unp_list_lock and unp_link_rwlock in write mode.
Robert noted that it would be nice if we could find some heuristic by
which we decide whether to run GC a bit more quickly. E.g., if the
number of UNIX domain sockets is close to its resource limit, but not
quite.

already armed and the ticks is negative. Otherwise rearm it to fire
in abs(ticks) ticks in the future.
The intended use is to call taskqueue_enqueue_timeout() for the given
timeout_task with the same negative ticks argument. As result, the
task is scheduled to execute not further than abs(ticks) ticks in
future, and the consequent enqueues are coalesced until the already
scheduled task is finished.
