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.

- Make mpi-350 cards sort-of work with new firmware. It RXs okay but TXs
only work for about 14 packets then fails to get an interrupt. The
TX watchdog fires. It has been reported that my hack for now doesn't
break cards with the older firmware. It appears my card has lost
the ability to RX or TX at all but other peoples cards work. I assume
it got damaged in tansport.

one RX & one TX buffer are used. Firmware support is not tested so for the
MPI-350 so it is disabled. Signal cache and monitor mode are not supported

frames are returned by the chip. LAN monitor mode support will be added
shortly. Thanks to Warner for the MPI-350 card he sent me.

This way you can manage 2 keys a little easier. Map the home mode into

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:
mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)
similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:
mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.
The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.
Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:
MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH
The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:
mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.
Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.
Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using
the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared
if WITNESS is enabled.
Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the
"optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN
and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently
need those.
Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code.

I opted to use Doug Ambrisko's WEP patches since David Cornejo's patches
did not include the necessary changes to ancontrol(8) to actually enable
and use WEP.
NOTE: I don't currently have access to an Aironet card, so I can't test
any of this. Everything compiles and close scrutiny doesn't reveal any
obvious problems, but Murphy's Law applies. This means I will probably
leave these changes in -current for a bit longer than usual until I'm
sure they work right.
NICs. (Finally!) The PCMCIA, ISA and PCI varieties are all supported,
though only the ISA and PCI ones will work on the alpha for now.
PCCARD, ISA and PCI attachments are all provided. Also provided an
ancontrol(8) utility for configuring the NIC, man pages, and updated
pccard.conf.sample. ISA cards are supported in both ISA PnP and hard-wired
mode, although you must configure the kernel explicitly to support the
hardwired mode since you have to know the I/O address and port ahead
of time.
Special thanks to Doug Ambrisko for doing the initial newbus hackery
and getting it to work in infrastructure mode.
