- Wrap [get]{bin,nano,micro}[up]time() functions of sys/time.h to allow
requesting time from either the feedback or the feed-forward clock. If a
feedback (e.g. ntpd) and feed-forward (e.g. radclock) daemon are both running
on the system, both kernel clocks are updated but only one serves time.
- Add similar wrappers for the feed-forward difference clock.

"correct" handling of frames in the RX pending queue during interface
transitions.
* ath_stoprecv() doesn't blank out the descriptor list - that's what
ath_startrecv() does. So, change a comment to reflect that.
* ath_stoprecv() does include a large (3ms) delay to let pending DMA
complete. However, I'm under the impression that the stopdma hal
method does check for a bit in the PCU to indicate DMA has stopped.
So, to help with fast abort and restart, modify ath_stoprecv() to take
a flag which indicates whether this is needed.
* Modify the uses of ath_stoprecv() to pass in a flag to support the
existing behaviour (ie, do the delay.)
* Remove some duplicate PCU teardown code (which wasn't shutting down DMA,
so it wasn't entirely correct..) and replace it with a call to
ath_stoprecv(sc, 0) - which disables the DELAY call.
The upshoot of this is now channel change doesn't simply drop completed
frames on the floor, but instead it cleanly handles those frames.
It still discards pending TX frames in the software and hardware queues
as there's no (current) logic which forcibly recalculates the rate control
information (or whether they're appropriate to be on the TX queue after
a channel change), that'll come later.
This still doesn't stop all the sources of queue stalls but it does
tidy up some of the code duplication.
To be complete, queue stalls now occur during normal behaviour -
they only occur after some kind of broken behaviour causes an interface
or node flush, upsetting the TX/RX BAW. Subsequent commits will
incrementally fix these and other related issues.

Implement ffcounter, a monotonically increasing cumulative counter on top of the
active timecounter. Provide low-level functions to read the ffcounter and
convert it to absolute time or a time interval in seconds using the current
ffclock estimates, which track the drift of the oscillator. Add a ring of
fftimehands to track passing of time on each kernel tick and pick up updates of
ffclock estimates.

nullfs. The problem is that resulting vnode is only required to be
held on return from the successfull call to vop, instead of being
referenced.
Nullfs VOP_INACTIVE() method reclaims the vnode, which in combination
with the VOP_VPTOCNP() interface means that the directory vnode
returned from VOP_VPTOCNP() is reclaimed in advance, causing
vn_fullpath() to error with EBADF or like.
Change the interface for VOP_VPTOCNP(), now the dvp must be
referenced. Convert all in-tree implementations of VOP_VPTOCNP(),
which is trivial, because vhold(9) and vref(9) are similar in the
locking prerequisites. Out-of-tree fs implementation of VOP_VPTOCNP(),
if any, should have no trouble with the fix.

The current code mixes the use of `flags' and `mode'. This is a bit
confusing, since the faccessat() function as a `flag' parameter to store
the AT_ flag.
Make this less confusing by using the same name as used in the POSIX

addresses from being probed and attaching something including ukphy(4)
to it. This is mainly necessarily for PHY switches that create duplicate
or fake PHYs on the bus that can corrupt the PHY state when accessed or
simply cause problems when ukphy(4) isolates the additional instances.
- Change miibus(4) to be a hinted bus, allowing to add child devices via
hints and to set their attach arguments (including for automatically
probed PHYs). This is mainly needed for PHY switches that violate IEEE
802.3 and don't even implement the basic register set so we can't probe
them automatically. However, the ability to alter the attach arguments
for automatically probed PHYs is also useful as for example it allows
to test (or tell a user to test) new variant of a PHY with a specific
driver by letting an existing driver attach to it via manipulating the
IDs without the need to touch the source code or to limit a Gigabit
Ethernet PHY to only announce up to Fast Ethernet in order to save
energy by limiting the capability mask. Generally, a driver has to
be hinted via hint.phydrv.X.at="miibusY" and hint.phydrv.X.phyno="Z"
(which already is sufficient to add phydrvX at miibusY at PHY address
Z). Then optionally the following attach arguments additionally can
be configured:
hint.phydrv.X.id1
hint.phydrv.X.id2
hint.phydrv.X.capmask
- Some minor cleanup.

for the ath(4) driver.
Currently, there's nothing stopping reset, channel change and general
TX/RX from overlapping with each other. This wasn't a big deal with
pre-11n traffic as it just results in some dropped frames.
It's possible this may have also caused some inconsistencies and
badly-setup hardware.
Since locks can't be held across all of this (the Linux solution)
due to LORs with the network stack locks, some state counter
variables are used to track what parts of the code the driver is
currently in.
When the hardware is being reset, it disables the taskqueue and
waits for pending interrupts, tx, rx and tx completion before
it begins the reset or channel change.
TX and RX both abort if called during an active reset or channel
change.
Finally, the reset path now doesn't flush frames if ATH_RESET_NOLOSS
is set. Instead, completed TX and RX frames are passed back up to
net80211 before the reset occurs.
This is not without problems:
* Raw frame xmit are just dropped, rather than placed on a queue.
The net80211 stack should be the one which queues these frames
rather than the driver.
* It's all very messy. It'd be better if these hardware operations
were serialised on some kind of work queue, rather than hoping
they can be run in parallel.
* The taskqueue block/unblock may occur in parallel with the
newstate() function - which shuts down the taskqueue and restarts
it once the new state is known. It's likely these operations should
be refcounted so the taskqueue is restored once no other areas
in the code wish to suspend operations.
* .. interrupt disable/enable should likely be refcounted as well.
With this work, the driver does not drop frames during stuck beacon
or fatal errors and thus 11n traffic continues to run correctly.
Default and full resets however do still drop frames and it's possible
this may occur, causing traffic loss and session stalls.
