cached state. Otherwise, a subsequent call to devinfo_init() would succeed
without reading the device tree from the kernel thinking that the cached
state was up to date since the generation count was the same. However,
since the cached state was actually free'd, attempts to examine the tree
after the second devinfo_init() would fail.

o Added dd_pnpinfo, dd_location, dd_devflags, dd_flags and dd_state
o Copy/initialize these as necessary.
o Document the changes to the interface in devinfo.3.
called <machine/_types.h>.
o <machine/ansi.h> will continue to live so it can define MD clock
macros, which are only MD because of gratuitous differences between
architectures.
o Change all headers to make use of this. This mainly involves
changing:
#ifdef _BSD_FOO_T_
typedef _BSD_FOO_T_ foo_t;
#undef _BSD_FOO_T_
#endif
to:
#ifndef _FOO_T_DECLARED
typedef __foo_t foo_t;
#define _FOO_T_DECLARED
#endif

The devinfo library provides access to the kernel's internal device
hierarchy and to the I/O resource manager. The library uses a
sysctl(9) interface to obtain a snapshot of the kernel's state which
is then made available to the application.
