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.

also is more compatible with other *BSDs, which do copyin within
setsockopt().

- most of the kernel code will not care about the actual encoding of
scope zone IDs and won't touch "s6_addr16[1]" directly.
- similarly, most of the kernel code will not care about link-local
scoped addresses as a special case.
- scope boundary check will be stricter. For example, the current
*BSD code allows a packet with src=::1 and dst=(some global IPv6
address) to be sent outside of the node, if the application do:
s = socket(AF_INET6);
bind(s, "::1");
sendto(s, some_global_IPv6_addr);
This is clearly wrong, since ::1 is only meaningful within a single
node, but the current implementation of the *BSD kernel cannot
reject this attempt.

in6p_outputopts at the entrance of the functions. this trick was
necessary when we passed an in6 pcb to in6_embedscope(), within which
the in6p_outputopts member was used, but we do not use this kind of
interface any more.

packet filter. This would cause a panic on architectures that require strict
alignment such as sparc64 (tier1) and ia64/ppc (tier2).
This adds two new macros that check the alignment, these are compile time
dependent on __NO_STRICT_ALIGNMENT which is set for i386 and amd64 where
alignment isn't need so the cost is avoided.
IP_HDR_ALIGNED_P()
IP6_HDR_ALIGNED_P()
Move bridge_ip_checkbasic()/bridge_ip6_checkbasic() up so that the alignment
is checked for ipfw and dummynet too.

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.

longer (see m_move_pkthdr).
