Implement several small improvements to the suspend/resume Xen sequence:
- Call the power_suspend_early event before stopping all processes.
- Stop all processes. This was done implicitly previously by putting all
the CPUs in a known IPI handler.
- Warm up the timecounter.
- Re-initialize the time of day register.

The current resolution of the Xen PV clock is too high, which causes an
adjustment of 5s to be applied to it. Reduce the resolution to be the same
as the RTC plus one, so it's always selected as the best source when
available on x86.
Also don't reset the clock on resume, it's pointless and discards any
previous adjustments.

Dom0 should be able to set the host time. This is implemented by first
writing to the RTC (as would be done on bare metal), and then using the
XENPF_settime64 hypercall in order to force Xen to update the wallclock
shared page of all domains.

With the removal of the usage of the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future flag, now
all errors from xentimer_vcpu_start_timer should be considered fatal, and
the loop is no longer needed since in case of setting the timer in the past
we will get an event interrupt right away (instead of returning ETIME).

On slow platforms with unreliable TSC, such as QEMU emulated machines,
it is possible for the FreeBSD kernel to request the next event in the
past. In that case, in the current implementation of
xentimer_vcpu_start_timer, we simply return -ETIME. To be precise Xen
returns -ETIME and we pass it on. As a consequence we need to loop
around to function to make sure that the timer is properly set.
Instead it is better to always ask the hypervisor for a timer event,
even if the timeout is past. To do that, remove the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future
flag.

Previously, the ACPI PCI bus driver did a single pass over the devices in
the namespace that were a child of a given PCI bus to associate the
PCI bus-enumerated device_t devices with the corresponding ACPI handles.
However, this meant that handles were only established at runtime for devices
found during the initial PCI bus scan.
PCI_IOV adds devices that show up after the initial PCI bus scan, and coming
changes to add a bus rescan can also add devices after the initial scan.
This change adds a pci_child_added() callback to the ACPI PCI bus that walks
the namespace to find the ACPI handle for each device that is added. Using
a callback means that the handle is correctly set for any device no matter
how it is added (initial scan, IOV, or a bus rescan).
And factor out tcp_lro_rx_done, which deduplicates the same logic with
netinet/tcp_lro.c

The m_ext.ext_cnt pointer becomes a union. It can now hold the refcount
value itself. To tell that m_ext.ext_flags flag EXT_FLAG_EMBREF is used.
The first mbuf to attach a cluster stores the refcount. The further mbufs
to reference the cluster point at refcount in the first mbuf. The first
mbuf is freed only when the last reference is freed.
The benefit over refcounts stored in separate slabs is that now refcounts
of different, unrelated mbufs do not share a cache line.
For EXT_EXTREF mbufs the zone_ext_refcnt is no longer needed, and m_extadd()
becomes void, making widely used M_EXTADD macro safe.
For EXT_SFBUF mbufs the sf_ext_ref() is removed, which was an optimization
exactly against the cache aliasing problem with regular refcounting.

The current Xen console driver is crashing very quickly when using it on
an ARM guest. This is because the console lock is recursive and it may
lead to recursion on the tty lock and/or corrupt the ring pointer.
Furthermore, the console lock is not always taken where it should be and has
to be released too early because of the way the console has been designed.
Over the years, code has been modified to support various new features but
the driver has not been reworked.
This new driver has been rewritten with the idea of only having a small set
of specific function to write either via the shared ring or the hypercall
interface.
Note that HVM support has been left aside for now because it requires
additional features which are not yet supported. A follow-up patch will be
sent with HVM guest support.
List of items that may be good to have but not mandatory:
- Avoid to flush for each character written when using the tty
- Support multiple consoles

the blkback to which it is connected and the initiation of such large I/Os
by the rest of the kernel. In practice, the I/O size is increased from 40 kB
to 128 kB.
The changes to xen/interface/io/blkif.h consist merely of merging updates
from the upstream Xen repository.
In dev/xen/blkfront/block.h we add some convenience macros and structure
fields used for indirect-page I/Os: The device records its negotiated limit
on the number of indirect pages used, while each I/O command structure gains
permanently allocated page(s) for indirect page references and the Xen grant
references for those pages.
In dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c we now check in xbd_queue_cb whether a request
is small enough to handle without an indirection page, and either follow the
previous behaviour or use new code for issuing an indirect segment I/O. In
xbd_connect we read the size of indirect segment I/Os supported by the backend
and select the maximum size we will use; then allocate the pages and Xen grant
references for each I/O command structure. In xbd_free those grants and pages
are released.
A new loader tunable, hw.xbd.xbd_enable_indirect, can be set to 0 in order to
disable this functionality; it works by pretending that the backend does not
support this feature. Some backends exhibit a loss of performance with large
I/Os, so users may wish to test with and without this functionality enabled.
