- clean up USB detach logic. There seems to be some problems detaching multiple
USB HUBs connected in series from the root.
- after this patch the rule is:
1) Always use device_detach() on the USB HUB first.
2) Never just device_delete_child() on the USB HUB, because that function
will traverse to all the device leaves and free them first, and then the USB
stack will free the devices twice which doesn't work very well.
- make sure the did DMA delay gets set after the timeout has elapsed to make
logic more clear. There is no functional difference.

Right now if applications want to use the mouse on the command line,
they use sysmouse(4) and install a signal handler in the kernel to
deliver signals when mouse events arrive. This conflicts with my plan to
change to TERM=xterm, so implement proper VT200-style mouse input.
Because mouse input is now streamed through the TTY, it means you can
now SSH to another system on the console and use the mouse there as
well. The disadvantage of the VT200 mouse protocol, is that it doesn't
seem to generate events when moving the cursor. Only when pressing and
releasing mouse buttons.
There are different protocols as well, but this one seems to be most
commonly supported.

This is done to make it harder to exploit kernel NULL pointer security
vulnerabilities. While this of course does not fix vulnerabilities,
it does mitigate their impact.
Note that this may break some applications, most likely emulators or
similar, which for one reason or another require mapping memory at
zero.
This restriction can be disabled with the security.bsd.mmap_zero
sysctl variable.

It is quite inconvenient that if an application for xterm uses 256 color
mode, text suddenly starts to blink (because of ;5; in the middle).
We'd better just implement 256 color mode and add a conversion routine
from 256 to 8 color mode, which doesn't seem to be too bad in practice.
Remapping colors is done quite simple. If one of the channels is most
actively represented, primary colors are used. If two channels are most
actively represented, secondary colors are used. If all three channels
are equal (gray), it picks between black and white.

In some cases events may occur that move the cursor outside the
scrolling region while in origin mode, which is normally not possible.
Events like these include:
- Alignment test.
- Restore cursor.
Properly switch off origin mode in these cases.

devices that we also support, just not by default (thus only LINT or
module builds by default).
While currently there is only "/dev/full" [2], we are planning to see more
in the future. We may decide to change the module/dependency logic in the
future should the list grow too long.
This is not part of linux.ko as also non-linux binaries like kFreeBSD
userland or ports can make use of this as well.

- Clear all registers before calling real mode interrupt handlers as we did
for dpms and vesa and re-enable the function as it should be fixed by this.
- Tidy up register access. For example, when we call INT 0x15, AH=0xc0,
we used to initialize AX=0xc000 to clear AL at the same time but it is
very confusing. We don't have to do this any more because we are explicitly
clearing all registers now.
- Check size of system configuration table although it is almost always 8.
This is to make sure we are not reading some random low physical memory.
Hopefully it is just zero in that case. :-)
- Fix some style nits and add more comments.

Just run this to switch to xterm:
printf '\e[=T'
If you get bored and want to switch back to cons25, run this:
printf '\e[=1T'
I can now send an email to the lists, asking whether people are
interested in trying the xterm emulator.
I noticed a small inconsistency in delete and insert line between xterm
and libteken. libteken allows these actions to happen while the cursor
is placed outside the scrolling region, while xterm does not.
This behaviour seems to be VT100-like. Confirmation:
http://www.vt100.net/docs/vt102-ug/chapter5.html
"This sequence is ignored when cursor is outside scrolling region."

check if there are readers blocked by us via URWLOCK_WRITE_WAITERS flag,
and resume the readers. The error must be EAGAIN, otherwise there must
have memory problem, and nobody can rescue the buggy application.
The revision 197445 might be reverted.
This means we can finally do things like VT100 box drawing when using
Syscons (8-bit characters). As far as I know, the only remaining issue
is the absense of proper escape sequences for special keyboard
characters (cursor, F1 to F12, etc) and xterm emulation should be ready
for general use.
Enabling xterm would have the following advantages:
- Easier possible migration to Unicode. cons25 termcap entries are very
8-bit centric. They use things like CP437 characters for box drawing,
etc.
- Better support for SSH'ing to other operating systems/devices. Most
switches use VT100-style admin interfaces.
- Reduced bandwidth, because applications can now use things like
scrolling regions.
- You can finally use applications like dtach(1) on both the console and
inside an xterm.
