warning message and attach without setting the Ethernet address to a
random address. It is not believed that this code can actually be
executed, and if it does, we're better off printing an error message than
faking up an Ethernet address.

IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the
per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will
allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver
programming interface or binary interface.
For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they
don't actually access the multicast address list.

o Chip full mask revision 2 or later controllers have to
set correct Tx MAC and Tx offload clock depending on negotiated
link speed.
o JMC260 chip full mask revision 2 has a silicon bug that can't
handle 64bit DMA addressing. Add workaround to the bug by
limiting DMA address space to be within 32bit.
o Valid FIFO space of receive control and status register was
changed on chip full mask revision 2 or later controllers. For
these controllers, use default 16QW as it's supposed to be the
safest value for maximum PCIe compatibility. JMicron confirmed
performance will not be reduced even if the FIFO space is set
to 16QW.
o When interface is put into suspend/shutdown state, remove Tx MAC
and Tx offload clock to save more power. We don't need Tx clock
at all in this state.
o Added new register definition for chip full mask revision 2 or
later controllers.
Thanks to JMicron for their continuous support of FreeBSD.
the last byte of the ethernet address was not read which in turn
resulted in getting 5 out of the 6 bytes of ethernet address and
always returned ENOENT. I did not notice the bug on FPGA version
because of additional configuration data in EEPROM.

device id is JMC260 family. Previously it just verified the deivce
is JMC260 Rev A0. This will make it easy for newer JMC2xx support.

While I'm here add register definition for GPREG1. ATM the GPREG1
register is only valid for JMC250 A1/A2.

gigabit ethernet and JMC260 fast ethernet controllers. ATM jme(4)
supports all hardware features except RSS and multiple Tx/Rx queue.
In these days most ethernet controller vendors take a ply of
concealing hardware detailes from open source developers. As
contrasted with these vendors JMicron provided all necessary
information needed to write a stable driver during driver writing
and answered many questions I had. They even helped fixing driver
bugs with protocol analyzer. Many thanks to JMicron for their
support of FreeBSD.
