information can be just as easily obtained from the struct vattr that
is in struct image_params if the latter is passed to
elf*_load_section(). Moreover, by replacing the vmspace and vm
object parameters to elf*_load_section() with a struct image_params
parameter, we actually reduce the size of the object code.

Although the module _builds_, it fails to load because of a missing symbol from
ieee80211_tdma.c.
Specifics:
* Always build ieee80211_tdma.c in the module;
* only compile in the code if IEEE80211_SUPPORT_TDMA is defined.
The USB code as it stands includes the bus glue along _with_ the controller
code. So the ohci/ehci modules actually build the USB controller code and
the PCI bus glue.
It'd be nice to ship separate modules for the PCI glue and the USB
controller (so for example if there were a USB controller hanging off
the internal SoC bus as well as an external PCI device) it could be done.
This is primarily done to save a few bytes here and there on embedded
systems with limited flash space for kernels - a very limited (sub-1MB)
space may be available for the kernel and may only support gzip encoding.
The rootfs can be LZMA compressed.

on-board, glued to the AR71xx CPU. These may forgo separate WMAC EEPROMs
(which store configuration and calibration data) and instead store
it in the main board SPI flash.
Normally the NIC reads the EEPROM attached to it to setup various PCI
configuration registers. If this isn't done, the device will probe as
something different (eg 0x168c:abcd, or 0x168c:ff??.) Other setup registers
are also written to which may control important functions.
This introduces a new compile option, AR71XX_ATH_EEPROM, which enables the
use of this particular code. The ART offset in the SPI flash can be
specified as a hint against the relevant slot/device number, for example:
hint.pcib.0.bus.0.17.0.ath_fixup_addr=0x1fff1000
hint.pcib.0.bus.0.18.0.ath_fixup_addr=0x1fff5000
TODO:
* Think of a better name;
* Make the PCIe version of this fixup code also use this option;
* Maybe also check slot 19;
* This has to happen _before_ the SPI flash is set from memory-mapped
to SPI-IO - so document that somewhere.
to being more generic.
Other embedded SoCs also throw the configuration/PCI register
info into flash.
For now I'm just hard-coding the AR9280 option (for on-board AR9220's on
AP94 and commercial designs (eg D-Link DIR-825.))
TODO:
* Figure out how to support it for all 11n SoC NICs by doing it in
ar5416InitState();
* Don't hard-code the EEPROM size - add another field which is set
by the relevant chip initialisation code.
* 'owl_eep_start_loc' may need to be overridden in some cases to 0x0.
I need to do some further digging.
to read strings completely to know the actual size.
As a side effect it fixes the issue with kern.proc.args and kern.proc.env
sysctls, which didn't return the size of available data when calling
sysctl(3) with the NULL argument for oldp.
Note, in get_ps_strings(), which does actual work for proc_getargv() and
proc_getenvv(), we still have a safety limit on the size of data read in
case of a corrupted procces stack.
