appropriate references are held, and sleeping is not an issue.

reading. (This was already done for writing to a sysctl). This
requires all SYSCTL setups to specify a type. Most of them are now
checked at compile-time.
Remove SYSCTL_*X* sysctl additions as the print being in hex should be
controlled by the -x flag to sysctl(8).

Add a drain function for struct sysctl_req, and use it for a variety
of handlers, some of which had to do awkward things to get a large
enough SBUF_FIXEDLEN buffer.
Note that some sysctl handlers were explicitly outputting a trailing
NUL byte. This behaviour was preserved, though it should not be
necessary.

The T3 ASIC can provide an incoming packet's timestamp instead of its RSS hash.
The timestamp is just a counter running off the card's clock. With a 175MHz
clock an increment represents ~5.7ns and the 32 bit value wraps around in ~25s.
# sysctl -d dev.cxgbc.0.pkt_timestamp
dev.cxgbc.0.pkt_timestamp: provide packet timestamp instead of connection hash

- Only the tunnelq (TXQ_ETH) requires a buf_ring, an ifq, and the watchdog/timer
callouts. Do not allocate these for the other tx queues.
- Use 16k jumbo clusters only on offload capable cards by default.
- Do not allocate a full tx ring for the offload queue if the card is not
offload capable.
- Slightly better freelist size calculation.
- Fix nmbjumbo4 typo, remove unneeded global variables.

This fixes a panic when running tcpdump on a cxgb interface.
- introduce drbr_needs_enqueue that returns whether the interface/br needs
an enqueue operation: returns true if altq is enabled or there are
already packets in the ring (as we need to maintain packet order)
- update all drbr consumers
- fix drbr_flush
- avoid using the driver queue (IFQ_DRV_*) in the altq case as the
multiqueue consumer does not provide enough protection, serialize altq
interaction with the main queue lock
- make drbr_dequeue_cond work with altq

- remove mbuf iovec - useful, but adds too much complexity when isolated to
the driver
- remove driver private caching - insufficient benefit over UMA to justify
the added complexity and maintenance overhead
- remove separate logic for managing multiple transmit queues, with the
new drbr routines the control flow can be made to much more closely resemble
legacy drivers
- remove dedicated service threads, with per-cpu callouts one can get the same
benefit much more simply by registering a callout 1 tick in the future if there
are still buffered packets
- remove embedded mbuf usage - Jeffr's changes will (I hope) soon be integrated
greatly reducing the overhead of using kernel APIs for reference counting
clusters
- add hysteresis to descriptor coalescing logic
- add coalesce threshold sysctls to allow users to decide at run-time
between optimizing for forwarding / UDP or optimizing for TCP
- add once per second watchdog to effectively close the very rare races
occurring from coalescing
- incorporate Navdeep's changes to the initialization path required to
convert port and adapter locks back to ordinary mutexes (silencing BPF
LOR complaints)
- enable prefetches in get_packet and tx cleaning

1) Add a sysctl that will say what type of PHYs exist on the card.
2) Fix a bug that occurs when an AEL 2005 PHY resets without a transciever
in the card.
3) Unify the PHY link detection code.

- invert sense of hw.cxgb.singleq tunable to hw.cxgb.multiq
- don't wake up transmitting thread by default
- add per tx queue ifaltq to handle ALTQ
- remove several unused functions in cxgb_multiq.c
- add several sysctls: multiq_tx_enable, coalesce_tx_enable,
and wakeup_tx_thread
- this obsoletes the hw.cxgb.snd_queue_len as ifq is replaced
by a buf_ring
and ifnet functions
- add memory barriers to <machine/atomic.h>
- update drivers to only conditionally define their own
- add lockless producer / consumer ring buffer
- remove ring buffer implementation from cxgb and update its callers
- add if_transmit(struct ifnet *ifp, struct mbuf *m) to ifnet to
allow drivers to efficiently manage multiple hardware queues
(i.e. not serialize all packets through one ifq)
- expose if_qflush to allow drivers to flush any driver managed queues
