do support 64bit addresses, the current SCRIPTS code supports only 32bit
addresses causing data corruption for buffer addresses >4GB. This problem
affects 64bit machines with more than 4GB RAM or amd64 with 4GB and
memory hole remapping.
Work-around this problem with a bus_dma tag that requests bounce-buffers
for addresses >4GB. This causes some overhead, but given the maximum SCSI
bus speed of 160MB/s compared, the effect should hardly be noticeable.
The problem was reported by Mike Watters (mike at mwatters net) who also
verified that this fix cures the problem.
Since this change is a NOOP on systems with less than 4GB RAM and fixes
data corruption (in RAM and on disk) on systems with more than 4GB, I hope
that this change is accepted for 8.0.

- Obsolete redundant inst_name and unit members of struct sym_hcb.
- Fix three more NULL vs. 0 confusions.
- Use device_set_softc(9) to tell the bus layer that this driver
allocates a instance of struct sym_hcb itself.
in order to get rid of bus space handle and tag in struct sym_hcb.
- Remove unused members related to bus addresses in struct sym_hcb.
- sym(4) takes care of allocating an instance of struct sym_hcb
itself so don't let newbus allocate it as an unused softc also.
- Add basic MPSAFE locking. This includes changing the sym(4) CCBs
to be allocated up-front instead of on demand as needed. Besides
making these allocations more likely to succeed, this also solves
the problem of calling bus_dmamap_create(9) with the SIM mutex
held.

4KB pages as i386, data structures that just fit in one page on i386 (and
on 64 bit architectures with 8KB pages) can be distributed over two pages
on amd64. This is a porblem in the case of the Symbios driver, since the
SCRIPTS engine in the SCSI chip operates on physical addresses and needs
physically contiguous memory. Earlier patches used contigmalloc on amd64,
but this version replaces part of a structure by a pointer to that data.
In order to not introduce an extra indirection for other architectures,
the change has been made conditional on __amd64__.
Earlier attempts to repair this problem are removed (i.e. the macros that
made amd64 use contigmalloc). The fix was submitted by Jan Mikkelsen and
modified by me to only affect amd64.

function provided by the driver limits allocations to the page size,
i.e. 4KB on i385 and 8KB on typical 64 bit processors. Since amd64
has 64 bit pointers, but only 4KB pages, an array of pointers that
just fits into one page on all the other processors, does require
2 pages on amd64.
In order to make this driver useful on amd64, the allocation unit
has been increased to 2 pages on amd64 and contigmalloc() is used
instead of malloc(). All other processor types are unaffected by
this change. This modification has only been compile-tested on
amd64, yet, but should just work (FLW).

Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.
