o Switch to ITANIUM2 has the cpu. This has absolutely no effect
on the code, but makes for a better example.
o Drop COMPAT_FREEBSD6. We're tier 2, so you're supposed to run
8-stable or newer.
o Add PREEMPTION. It works now.
o Remove HWPMC_HOOKS. We don't have support for hwpmc yet.
o Add a bunch of new devices: atapist, hptiop, amr, ips, twa, igb,
ixgbe, ae, age, alc, ale, bce, bfe, et, jme, msk, nge, sk, ste,
stge, tx, vge, axe, rue, udav, fwip, and all USB serial.
o Remove "legacy" devices: le, vx, dc, pcn, rl, sis.

- add some new hardware support for 82599
- Big change to interrupt architecture, it now
uses a queue which contains an RX/TX pair as
the recipient of the interrupt. This will reduce
overall system interrupts/msix usage.
- Improved RX mbuf handling: the old get_buf routine
is no longer synchronized with rxeof, this allows
the elimination of packet discards due to mbuf
allocation failure.
- Much simplified and improved AIM code, it now
happens in the queue interrupt context and takes
into account both the traffic on the RX AND TX
side.
- variety of small tweaks, like ring size, that have
been seen as performance improvements.
- Thanks to those that provided feedback or suggested
changes, I hope I've caught all of them.

Have configure_final() call ia64_finalize_intr() instead of enable_intr()
in preparation of adding support for binding interrupts to all CPUs.
on debug output. Add a new platform function requirement to allow
for printing based upon the ITL nexus instead of the isp unit plus
channel, target and lun. This allows some printouts and error messages
from the core code to appear in the same format as the platform's
subsystem (in FreeBSD's case, CAM path).

This allows us to run on hardware configurations for which the
ITC has non-uniform frequencies across CPUs.
While here, change the clock XIV to type IPI so as to protect
the interrupt delivery against CPU re-balancing once that's
implemented.

obreak() and is required for correct operation of that function

required only for the Alpha, which is no longer supported.

bad sacks when you enabled nr-sack. The fixes range across
4 files and unifiy most of the processing so that we only test
nr_sack flags to decide which type of sack to generate.
Optimization left for this is to combine the sack generation
code and make it capable of generating either sack thus shrinking
out a routine.
