This is an unfortunate byproduct of how the routine is used - it's called
with the head frame on the queue, but if the frame is failed, it's inserted
into the tail of the queue.
Because of this, the sequence numbers would get all shuffled around and
the BAW would be bumped past this sequence number, that's now at the
end of the software queue. Then, whenever it's time for that frame
to be transmitted, it'll be immediately outside of the BAW and TX will
stall until the BAW catches up.
It can also result in all kinds of weird duplicate BAW frames, leading
to hilarious panics.

This showed up when doing heavy UDP throughput on SMP machines.
The problem with this is because the 802.11 sequence number is being
allocated separately to the CCMP PN replay number (which is assigned
during ieee80211_crypto_encap()).
Under significant throughput (200+ MBps) the TX path would be stressed
enough that frame TX/retry would force sequence number and PN allocation
to be out of order. So once the frames were reordered via 802.11 seqnos,
the CCMP PN would be far out of order, causing most frames to be discarded
by the receiver.
I've fixed this in some local work by being forced to:
(a) deal with the issues that lead to the parallel TX causing out of
order sequence numbers in the first place;
(b) fix all the packet queuing issues which lead to strange (but mostly
valid) TX.
I'll begin fixing these in a subsequent commit or five.

propagate the stack execution permissions when stack is grown down.
First, curproc->p_sysent->sv_stackprot specifies maximum allowed stack
protection for current ABI, so the new stack entry was typically marked
executable always. Second, for non-main stack MAP_STACK mapping,
the PROT_ flags should be used which were specified at the mmap(2) call
time, and not sv_stackprot.

Return PROTO_ATA protocol in response to XPT_PATH_INQ.
smartmontools uses it to identify ATA devices and I don't know any other
place now where it is important. It could probably use XPT_GDEV_TYPE
instead for more accurate protocol information, but let it live for now.

reporting. It includes:
- removing of error messages controlled by bootverbose, replacing them
with more universal and informative debugging on CAM_DEBUG_INFO level,
that is now built into the kernel by default;
- more close following to the arguments submitted by caller, such as
SF_PRINT_ALWAYS, SF_QUIET_IR and SF_NO_PRINT; consumer knows better which
errors are usual/expected at this point and which are really informative;
- adding two new flags SF_NO_RECOVERY and SF_NO_RETRY to allow caller
specify how much assistance it needs at this point; previously consumers
controlled that by not calling cam_periph_error() at all, but that made
behavior inconsistent and debugging complicated;
- tuning debug messages and taken actions order to make debugging output
more readable and cause-effect relationships visible;
- making camperiphdone() (common device recovery completion handler) to
also use cam_periph_error() in most cases, instead of own dumb code;
- removing manual sense fetching code from cam_periph_error(); I was told
by number of people that it is SIM obligation to fetch sense data, so this
code is useless and only significantly complicates recovery logic;
- making ada, da and pass driver to use cam_periph_error() with new limited
recovery options to handle error recovery and debugging in common way;
as one of results, CAM_REQUEUE_REQ and other retrying statuses are now
working fine with pass driver, that caused many problems before.
- reverting r186891 by raj@ to avoid burning few seconds in tight DELAY()
loops on device probe, while device simply loads media; I think that problem
may already be fixed in other way, and even if it is not, solution must be
different.

POSIX says that SIGPIPE affects a process and therefore a SIGPIPE caused and
received by a subshell environment may or may not affect the parent shell
environment.
The change assumes that ${SH} is executed in a new process. This must be the
case if it contains a slash and everyone appears to do so anyway even though
POSIX might permit otherwise.
This change makes builtins/wait3.0 work in ksh93.
