I've submitted an alternative proposal to -core about just importing
the (converted) GPL PHY code in an alternate directory under sys/gnu/
so I don't have to rewrite it all to be BSD licenced.
eg an NFSv4 root over WiFi: boot from md_root (small rootfs image
preloaded by loader(8)), setup WiFi, and then reroot into the actual
root, over NFS.
Note that it's currently limited to NFSv4, and due to problems with
nfsuserd(8) it requres a workaround on the server side: one needs
to set the vfs.nfsd.enable_stringtouid=1 sysctl and not run nfsuserd(8)
on either the server or the client side.

Use arc4random_uniform() when the desired random number upper bound
is not a power of two.
While here, we don't need srandom() and friends anymore.

bottom of the Makefile

icmp6.redirtimeout, icmp6.nd6_maxnudhint and ip6.rr_prune are left
undocumented as they appear to have no effect. Some existing sysctl
descriptions were modified for consistency and style, and the
ip6.tempvltime and ip6.temppltime handlers were rewritten to be a bit
simpler and to avoid setting the sysctl value before validating it.

When I/O on a file under fuse is switched from buffered to DIRECT_IO,
it was possible to read stale (before a recent modification) data from
the buffer cache. This patch invalidates the buffer cache for the
file to fix this.

Similar to r299802, it was noted that using nitems on scalar pointers is
invalid.
Use strdup instead of malloc + strlcpy (which is what the old code was doing
anyhow).

nitems was wrong too, as it was being tested against a pointer instead of a buffer on
the stack.
Since the old code was just doing malloc, then strlcpy'ing the contents of the source
buffer into the destination buffer, replace it all with a call to strdup..

N-PHY and later require a lot more plcp specific setup for the PHY
to know what to transmit. I've been spoilt by the atheros, intel
and realtek parts where you don't have to hand-assemble the PLCP
but .. well, apparently Broadcom require a lot more work.
This, and PHY-N itself, was the last major missing bit to get 11a
OFDM transmit to work. Without this, CCK transmit worked but
OFDM transmit would always fail (with stat.phy_err set to 0x80.)
I have no idea what 0x80 is, and I went mad reading the broadcom
vendor driver to try and figure it out.
Tested:
* BCM4312 (PHY-LP)
* BCM4321 (PHY-N), 11a, 11bg.
