In netif_free(), properly stop the interface and drain any pending
timers prior to disconnecting from the backend device.
Remove all media and detach our interface object from the system
prior to deleting it.

from 1k to 20k The previous value was good 10 years ago, but not
anymore now.
More importantly, lots of good surprises:
polling is incredibly effective under virtualization, and not only
prevents livelock but also saves most of the VM exit overhead in
receive mode.
Using polling, a FreeBSD instance under qemu-kvm remains perfectly
responsive even when bombed with 10 Mpps over an emulated e1000,
and happily processes 1.7 Mpps through ipfw.
Note that some incompatibilities still remain: e.g. polling is not
(yet) compatible with netmap, and seems to freeze the guest when

the return value is NULL. Based on the returned flags, the
return value should never be inspected in the case where NULL
is returned, but it is good coding practice not to return a
pointer to freed memory.

o Relax locking assertions for pmap_enter_object() and add them also
to architectures that currently don't have any
o Introduce VM_OBJECT_LOCK_DOWNGRADE() which is basically a downgrade
operation on the per-object rwlock
o Use all the mechanisms above to make vm_map_pmap_enter() to work
mostl of the times only with readlocks.

The <uchar.h> header, part of C11, adds a small number of utility
functions for 16/32-bit "universal" characters, which may or may not be
UTF-16/32. As our wchar_t is already ISO 10646, simply add light-weight
wrappers around wcrtomb() and mbrtowc().
While there, also add (non-yet-standard) _l functions, similar to the
ones we already have for the other locale-dependent functions.

traffic.
When transmitting non-aggregate traffic, we need to keep the hardware
busy whilst transmitting or small bursts in txdone/tx latency will
kill us.
This restores non-aggregate iperf performance, especially when doing
TDMA.
Tested:
* AR5416<->AR5416, TDMA
* AR5416 STA <-> AR9280 AP
of course.)
There's a few things that needed to happen:
* In case someone decides to set the beacon transmission rate to be
at an MCS rate, use the MCS-aware version of the duration calculation
to figure out how long the received beacon frame was.
* If TxOP enforcing is available on the hardware and we're doing TDMA,
enable it after a reset and set the TDMA guard interval to zero.
This seems to behave fine.
TODO:
* Although I haven't yet seen packet loss, the PHY errors that would be
triggered (specifically Transmit-Override-Receive) aren't enabled
by the 11n HAL. I'll have to do some work to enable these PHY errors
for debugging.
What broke:
* My recent changes to the TX queue handling has resulted in the driver
not keeping the hardware queue properly filled when doing non-aggregate
traffic. I have a patch to commit soon which fixes this situation
(albeit by reminding me about how my ath driver locking isn't working
out, sigh.)
So if you want to test this without updating to the next set of patches
that I commit, just bump the sysctl dev.ath.X.hwq_limit from 2 to 32.
Tested:
* AR5416 <-> AR5416, with ampdu disabled, HT40, 5GHz, MCS12+Short-GI.
I saw 30mbit/sec in both directions using a bidirectional UDP test.
