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.

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.

Pro and Raylink cards with version 5 firmware. Only infra-structure
mode has been tested. Specific changes for this feature are:
o Add RFC1042 encapsulation of IP datagrams
o Add authentication and association
o Decode of the beacon (although not used)
Other changes have been made:
o Pass command completion status to *_done (in place for
adding proper error recovery)
o Move a couple of state variables into the current
network parameters structure. This is in prep. for
dealing with roaming.

Reduce the verbose memory map setup reports and work with pccardd to
set the common memory map up.
Use enumeration values for CARD_SET_RES_FLAGS.
Use DELAY when spinning waiting for the card to come free instead of a loop.

active memory maps. This removes the need to change the memory
map from common to attribute every time a packet is sent/received.
This increases performance and decreases cpu load (ping times on
slow machines improve by about 1.5ms).
Move out the old common memory/attrbiute memory hack functions to a
new header file to tidy up the main code. I want to keep them available
for a while.
The prior version in the tree was repo-copied from Duncan Barclay's
cvs tree.
Also add $FreeBSD$
