- Some mxge nics may store the serial number in the SN2 field of the
EEPROM. These will also have an SN=0 field, so parse the SN2 field,
and give it precedence.
- Skip MXGEFW_CMD_UNALIGNED_TEST on mxge nics which do not require it.
This saves roughly 10ms per port at device attach time.

PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL commands return errors on these devices
without returning sense data. In some cases unrelated following commands
start to return errors too, that makes device to be dropped by CAM.
- Re-fix build by restoring local removed in r247151, but protected
by #if defined(INET) || defined(INET6) so that the compile
succeeds in the !(INET||INET6) case.
- Protect call to in_pseudo() with an #ifdef INET, to allow
a kernel to link with mxge when INET is not compiled in.
- Also remove an errant (improperly commented) obsolete debugging printf
Thanks to Glebius for pointing out the !(INET||INET6) build issue.

an incorrectly calculated RTS duration value when transmitting aggregates.
These earlier 802.11n NICs incorrectly used the ACK duration time when
calculating what to put in the RTS of an aggregate frame. Instead it
should have used the block-ack time. The result is that other stations
may not reserve enough time and start transmitting _over_ the top of
the in-progress blockack field. Tsk.
This workaround is to popuate the burst duration field with the delta
between the ACK duration the hardware is using and the required duration
for the block-ack. The result is that the RTS field should now contain
the correct duration for the subsequent block-ack.
This doesn't apply for AR9280 and later NICs.

These set of ranges will be looked at if a standard memory
range isn't found, and won't be installed in the cache.
Use this to implement the memory behaviour of the PCI hole on
x86 systems, where writes are ignored and reads always return -1.
This allows breakpoints to be set when issuing a 'boot -d', which
has the side effect of accessing the PCI hole when changing the
PTE protection on kernel code, since the pmap layer hasn't been
initialized (a bug, but present in existing FreeBSD releases so
has to be handled).

changes in r246417 were incomplete as they did not add explicit calls to
sigdeferstop() around all the places that previously passed SBDRY to
_sleep(). In addition, nfs_getcacheblk() could trigger a write RPC from
getblk() resulting in sigdeferstop() recursing. Rather than manually
deferring stop signals in specific places, change the VFS_*() and VOP_*()
methods to defer stop signals for filesystems which request this behavior
via a new VFCF_SBDRY flag. Note that this has to be a VFC flag rather than
a MNTK flag so that it works properly with VFS_MOUNT() when the mount is
not yet fully constructed. For now, only the NFS clients are set this new
flag in VFS_SET().
A few other related changes:
- Add an assertion to ensure that TDF_SBDRY doesn't leak to userland.
- When a lookup request uses VOP_READLINK() to follow a symlink, mark
the request as being on behalf of the thread performing the lookup
(cnp_thread) rather than using a NULL thread pointer. This causes
NFS to properly handle signals during this VOP on an interruptible
mount.

DragonFlyBSD, so it certainly doesn't need splsoftvm(). Remove it.
# I doubt this driver will now compile on older FreeBSD versions or DFBSD
# We should consider unifdefing it since that code seems unmaintained.
Specifcially, in_cksum_hdr() returns 0 (not 0xffff) when the IPv4
checksum is correct. Without this fix, the tcp_lro code will reject
good IPv4 traffic from drivers that do not implement IPv4 header
harder csum offload.

Fix ddb's show rtc command deadlock potential when debugging rtc code

Specifically - never jack the TX FIFO threshold up to the absolute
maximum; always leave enough space for two DMA transactions to

This is a paranoia from the Linux ath9k driver. It can't hurt.

libraries it calls (although some might not be doing it right). We are
serialized right now by giant as well. This means the splsoftclock are
now an anachronism that has no benefit, even marking where locking
needs to happen. Remove them.
The default is to limit them to what the hardware is capable of.
Add sysctl twiddles for both the non-RTS and RTS protected aggregate
generation.
Whilst here, add some comments about stuff that I've discovered during
my exploration of the TX aggregate / delimiter setup path from the
reference driver.
- bear with me, there are lots of white space changes, I would not
do them, but I am a mere consumer of this stuff and if these drivers
are to stay in shape they need to be taken.
em driver changes: support for the new i217/i218 interfaces
igb driver changes:
- TX mq start has a quick turnaround to the stack
- Link/media handling improvement
- When link status changes happen the current flow control state
will now be displayed.
- A few white space/style changes.
lem driver changes:
- the shared code uncovered a bogus write to the RLPML register
(which does not exist in this hardware) in the vlan code,this
is removed.
CSUM_TCP too. They are all set explicitly by the kernel usually.
While here, fix an unrelated bug where hardware L4 checksum calculation
was accidentally disabled for some IPv6 packets.
