OF_finddevices returns ((phandle_t)-1) in case of failure. Some code
in existing drivers checked return value to be equal to 0 or
less/equal to 0 which is also wrong because phandle_t is unsigned
type. Most of these checks were for negative cases that were never
triggered so trhere was no impact on functionality.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
VM_MEMATTR_WRITE_COMBINING sets write-through cache flag for framebuffer
memory that prevents pixel data from being stuck in cache until evicition
happens
VideoCore reports garbage in viewport geometry fields unless
viewport was set previously by earlier stage boot loader. So
when booting FreeBSD kernel directly from VideoCore's start.elf
framebuffer intialization fails due to invalid vxres, vyres
values. Make sure we request viewport to be equal to physical
resolution

Some applications (e.g. Kodi) use tvservice APIs to manage HDMI
modes, power state, EDID etc. directly through VideoCore. After
these manipulations VideoCore may loose its state and needs to be
resynced with ARM. Under Linux this problem is worked around using
fbset utility that recreates framebuffer. Since there is no fbset
utility in FreeBSD we provide sysctl for userland apps to get system
back into normal mode.
- Add bcm2835_mbox_property for generic property request, it accepts
pointer to prepared property chan message and its size, forwards
it to MBOX and copies result back
- Make all bcm2835_mbox_XXX functions that use property channel go
through bcm2835_mbox_property path. Do not accept device_t as
an argument, it's not required: all DMA operatiosn should go
through mbox device, and all API consumers should report errors
on their side.
Use the BCM2835_MBOX_CHAN_PROP mbox channel to setup the framebuffer,
remove DMA code (its now done in bcm2835_mbox.c).
Also adjust the color palette when bcm2708_fb.fbswap is set. The
firmware used on RPi 2 uses this mode.
Tested on: RPi-B and RPi 2 with 16, 24 and 32bpp
Note: The 32bpp mode on RPi-B has the red and blue swapped, this
is a know problem (not a driver problem).
a sub-node of nexus (ofwbus) rather than direct attach under nexus. This
fixes FDT on x86 and will make coexistence with ACPI on ARM systems easier.
SPARC is unchanged.
