synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This

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.

the wi(4) driver can recover if you eject the card). The problem is
that the card needs to be "reset" in a way before you even change the
media to hostap. In practice this isn't as noticeable because you
probably do some operation beforehand which prevents the lock-up
before you enable hostap mode.
e.g.:
"ifconfig wi0 up media autoselect mediaopt hostap" will lock up
(if you just inserted the card).
"ifconfig wi0 up ssid foo media autoselect mediaopt hostap" won't lock up.

count handling of station entries in hostap mode:
Input path:
o driver is now expected to find the node associated with the
sender of a received frame; use ic_bss if none is located
o driver passes the (referenced) node into ieee80211_input for
use within the wlan module and is responsible for cleaning up
on return
o the antenna state is no longer passed up with each frame; this
is now considered driver-private state and drivers are responsible
for keeping it in the driver-private part of a node
Output path:
Revamp output path for management frames to eliminate redundant
locking that causes problems and to correct reference counting
bogosity that occurs when stations are timed out due to inactivity
(in AP mode). On output the refcnt'd node is stashed in the pkthdr's
recvif field (yech) and retrieved by the driver. This eliminates
an unref/ref scenario and related node table unlock/lock due to the
driver looking up the node. This is particularly important when
stations are timed out as this causes a lock order reversal that
can result in a deadlock. As a byproduct we also reduce the overhead
for sending management frames (minimal). Additional fallout from
this is a change to ieee80211_encap to return a refcn't node for
tieing to the outbound frame. Node refcnts are not reclaimed until
after a frame is completely processed (e.g. in the tx interrupt
handler). This is especially important for timed out stations as
this deref will be the final one causing the node entry to be
reclaimed.
Additional semi-related changes:
o replace m_copym use with m_copypacket (optimization)
o add assert to verify ic_bss is never free'd during normal operation
o add comments explaining calling conventions by drivers for frames
going in each direction
o remove extraneous code that "cannot be executed" (e.g. because
pointers may never be null)
newer lucent/hermes firmware than indicated (investigating). I'm committing
this now since it shouldn't hurt anything.
o Vaguely related, add bogus frame length check from netbsd.

Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.

firmware 1.50.12, but 2.20.1 and 3.10.4 work. The 1.50.12 card gets
past doing dhclient, but hangs on transmit a little after the ip
address is set. The 1.50.12 card has always been 'cranky' and Bill
Paul's tearing it apart at FreeBSD '99 hasn't helped.
sc_reset and sc_enable are subtlely different things. sc_reset means
exactly "WI_CMD_INI has happened." sc_enabled means "WI_CMD_ENABLE
has been sent to the card without a WI_CMD_DISABLE following." This
is a little different than what they mean on NetBSD (where both of
these concepts are comingled). NetBSD will try to only enable symbol
cards once, while FreeBSD only sends the WI_CMD_INI once.
Also, only try once to reset the card on a symbol.
This makes the lucent cards no worse than before, but apparently not
much better either. I got fewer hangs in my testing than I have in
the past, but I don't know if it is statistically significant or not.
