- Add a mutex to the softc and use it to protect the softc and device
hardware.
- Setup interrupt handler after attaching device to network stack.
- Use device_set_desc() rather than device_quiet() plus a manual printf
that simulates the normal probe printf.
- Axe next_sbni_unit and instead just leave room for two sbni devices for
each bus attachment.
- Don't bzero the already-zero'd softc.
- Add a detach method to the PCI driver.
- Add a lock to protect the list of available devices used to chain
interrupt handlers for dual port ISA cards.
- Remove unused watchdog routine.
- If if_alloc() fails, make sbni_attach() return an error rather than
panic'ing.
- Consolidate code to free bus resources into sbni_release_resources().
- Clear IFF_DRV_RUNNING|OACTIVE in stop() routine instead of in callers.
- Let ether_ioctl() handle SIOCSIFMTU.

rather than in ifindex_table[]; all (except one) accesses are
through ifp anyway. IF_LLADDR() works faster, and all (except
one) ifaddr_byindex() users were converted to use ifp->if_addr.
- Stop storing a (pointer to) Ethernet address in "struct arpcom",
and drop the IFP2ENADDR() macro; all users have been converted
to use IF_LLADDR() instead.
IFF_DRV_RUNNING, as well as the move from ifnet.if_flags to
ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for
synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This
helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in
maintaining the interface flags field.
Many __FreeBSD__ and __FreeBSD_version checks maintained and continued;
some less so.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

if the link-level address has been initialized already.
The majority of modern drivers never does this and works fine, which
makes me think that the check is totally unnecessary and a residue
of cut&paste from other drivers.
This change is done to simplify locking because now almost none of the
drivers uses this field. The exceptions are "ct" "ctau" and "cx"
where i am not sure if i can remove that part.
if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface
and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.
This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
device creation and configuration symantics.

such abuse isn't really needed. (And if we do need type information
associated with a module then we should make it explicit and not
use hacks.)

- generate fake ethernet address using read_random() instead of reading
from timer i/o ports
Other minor fixes:
- remove "hack" in connect_to_master()
- use M_ZERO
- remove unused variable in sbni_ioctl()
- properly release irq in sbni_attach_isa() on attach errors
general cleanup of the API. The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API. The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument. The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0. The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.
