checking IFF_DRV_RUNNING and simplify the code. This also involves holding
the driver lock in the rx_ch callout.
- Just use ifp instead of sc->sc_ifp.

- Consistently use the newly introduced sc_mac_rxcfg throughout the driver
instead of reading the old content of CAS_MAC_RX_CONF.
- Increment if_iqdrops instead of if_ierrors in case of RX buffer allocation
failure.
- According to the Cassini datasheet the RX MAC should also be disabled in
cas_setladrf() before changing its configuration.
- Add error messages to gem_disable_{r,t}x() and take advantage of these
throughout the driver instead of duplicating their functionality all over
the place.
the NIC drivers as well as the PHY drivers to take advantage of the
mii_attach() introduced in r213878 to get rid of certain hacks. For
the most part these were:
- Artificially limiting miibus_{read,write}reg methods to certain PHY
addresses; we now let mii_attach() only probe the PHY at the desired
address(es) instead.
- PHY drivers setting MIIF_* flags based on the NIC driver they hang
off from, partly even based on grabbing and using the softc of the
parent; we now pass these flags down from the NIC to the PHY drivers
via mii_attach(). This got us rid of all such hacks except those of
brgphy() in combination with bce(4) and bge(4), which is way beyond
what can be expressed with simple flags.
While at it, I took the opportunity to change the NIC drivers to pass
up the error returned by mii_attach() (previously by mii_phy_probe())
and unify the error message used in this case where and as appropriate
as mii_attach() actually can fail for a number of reasons, not just
because of no PHY(s) being present at the expected address(es).

on Cassini using the external PCS SERDES otherwise unaligned access
traps and other strange effects happen with some machines. Don't touch
the MIF which is unused in that case either. These changes require the
PHY type to use to be determined via the OFW device tree or from the
VPD in machines without the former.
- Disable the SERDES pins of Saturn when not used in order to save power
and ensure they are enabled otherwise.
- In cas_attach() use the correct register offset for CAS_PCS_CONF_EN.
- Add some bus space barriers missing in the PCS code path.
These changes make the Sun GigaSwift Ethernet 1.0 MMF cards as well as
the on-board interfaces found in Sun Fire B100s Blade Server work.

IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the
per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will
allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver
programming interface or binary interface.
For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they
don't actually access the multicast address list.

handling in order to reduce interrupt overhead which results in
better performance.
- Call ether_ifdetach(9) before stopping the controller and the
callouts detach in order to prevent active BPF listeners to clear
promiscuous mode which may lead to the tick callout being restarted
which will trigger a panic once it's actually gone.
- Add explicit IFF_DRV_RUNNING checking in order to prevent extra
link up/down events when using dhclient(8).
- Use the correct macro for deciding whether 2/3 of the available TX
descriptors are used.
- Wrap the RX fault printing in #ifdef CAS_DEBUG in order to not
unnecessarily frighten users and as debugging was the actual
intention. Real errors caused by these faults still will be
accumulated as input errors. It might be a good idea to later on
add driver specific counters for the faults though.

DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet controllers. These are the successors
of the Sun GEM controllers and still have a similar but extended transmit
logic. As such this driver is based on gem(4).
Thanks to marcel@ for providing a Sun Quad GigaSwift Ethernet UTP (QGE)
card which was vital for getting this driver to work on architectures
not using Open Firmware.
