shared-last-sector problem.
After this change, even if there is more than one provider with the same
last sector, the proper one will be chosen based on its size.
It still doesn't fix the 'c' partition problem (when da0s1 can be confused
with da0s1c) and situation when 'a' partition starts at offset 0
(then da0s1a can be confused with da0s1 and da0s1c). One can use '-h'
option there, when creating device or avoid sharing last sector.
Actually, when providers share the same last sector and their size is equal,
they provide exactly the same data, so the name (da0s1, da0s1a, da0s1c)
isn't important at all.
- Provide backward compatibility.
- Update copyright's year.

- Add debug.watchdog tunable, so we can specify watchdog CPU from loader
which will help to debug hangs on boot.
- Remove 'U' from debug.watchdog sysctl definition, so if we set it to '-1'
it really shows '-1'.
- Fix comment.
ignore the sack options in that segment. Else we'd end up
corrupting the scoreboard.

which after the m_pullup is not suitable as a packet header any
longer (see m_move_pkthdr).
and this is what causes the kernel panic in sbappendaddr later on.

testing it to know whether we should enable the 82503 serial mode...
Move code to the right location and disallow the use of the 82503
serial mode if the sc->revision field is 0 again. This makes fxp(4)
work correctly with ATMEL 350 93C46 cards (3 port 82559 based with a
82555 PHY), as well as with the older ATMEL 220 93C46 (same flavour)
and with the even older 10Mbps-only 82557 cards with the 82503 serial
interface.

SMP systems. It appears all drivers except ichss should attach to each
CPU and that settings should be performed on each CPU. Add comments about
this. Also, add a guard for p4tcc's identify method being called more than
once.
debug.cpufreq.lowest tunable and sysctl. Some systems seem to have problems
with the lowest frequencies so setting this prevents them from being
available or used.
introducing the disk formats for _RuneLocale and friends.
The disk formats do not have (useless) pointers and have 32-bit
quantities instead of rune_t and long. (htonl(3) only works
with 32-bit quantities, so there's no loss).
Bootstrap mklocale(1) when necessary. (Bootstrapping from 4.x
would be trivial (verified), but we no longer provide pre-5.3
source upgrades and this is the first commit to actually break
it.)
ARM_TP_ADDRESS, where the tp will be stored. On CPUs that support it, a cache
line will be allocated and locked for this address, so that it will never go
to RAM. On CPUs that does not, a page is allocated for it (it will be a bit
slower, and is wrong for SMP, but should be fine for UP).
The tp is still stored in the mdthread struct, and at each context switch,
ARM_TP_ADDRESS gets updated.

uart(4) to support the Zilog 8530 SCCs which hang off of a FireHose
bus on Sun E4000/E5000 class machines.
Beside the fact that a puc_fhc.c would just be a copy of puc_sbus.c
with s,sbus,fhc,g the reason why the declaration for fhc(4) was
sticked into puc_sbus.c is that both of these front-ends for puc(4)
will go away once there is a scc(4).

that describe a buffer of variable size). The problem is, allocating
MDLs off the heap is slow, and it can happen that drivers will allocate
lots and lots of lots of MDLs as they run.
As a compromise, we now do the following: we pre-allocate a zone for
MDLs big enough to describe any buffer with 16 or less pages. If
IoAllocateMdl() needs a MDL for a buffer with 16 or less pages, we'll
allocate it from the zone. Otherwise, we allocate it from the heap.
MDLs allocate from the zone have a flag set in their mdl_flags field.
When the MDL is released, IoMdlFree() will uma_zfree() the MDL if
it has the MDL_ZONE_ALLOCED flag set, otherwise it will release it
to the heap.
The assumption is that 16 pages is a "big number" and we will rarely
need MDLs larger than that.
- Moved the ndis_buffer zone to subr_ntoskrnl.c from kern_ndis.c
and named it mdl_zone.
- Modified IoAllocateMdl() and IoFreeMdl() to use uma_zalloc() and
uma_zfree() if necessary.
- Made ndis_mtop() use IoAllocateMdl() instead of calling uma_zalloc()
directly.
