power of 2 and we're using MSI, then switch to interrupt multiplexing.
While here, replace the magic numbers with something more readable.

At least one AR5416 user has reported measurable throughput drops
with this option. For now, disable it and make it a run-time
twiddle. It won't take affect until the next radio programming
trip though (eg channel scan, channel change.)
integer overflow when the input is very large (for example, 100 Pi would
become about 10 Ei which exceeded signed int64_t).
Solve this issue by splitting the division into two parts and avoid the
multiplication.

occurrences of these options. It was possible that for example both "ro"

Also, express this new maximum as a fraction of the kernel's address
space size rather than a constant so that increasing KVA_PAGES will
automatically increase this maximum. As a side-effect of this change,
kern.maxvnodes will automatically increase by a proportional amount.
While I'm here ensure that this change doesn't result in an unintended
increase in maxpipekva on i386. Calculate maxpipekva based upon the
size of the kernel address space and the amount of physical memory
instead of the size of the kmem map. The memory backing pipes is not
allocated from the kmem map. It is allocated from its own submap of
the kernel map. In short, it has no real connection to the kmem map.
(In fact, the commit messages for the maxpipekva auto-sizing talk
about using the kernel map size, cf. r117325 and r117391, even though
the implementation actually used the kmem map size.) Although the
calculation is now done differently, the resulting value for
maxpipekva should remain almost the same on i386. However, on amd64,
the value will be reduced by 2/3. This is intentional. The recent
change to VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE on amd64 for the benefit of ZFS also had
the unnecessary side-effect of increasing maxpipekva. This change is
effectively restoring maxpipekva on amd64 to its prior value.
Eliminate init_param3() since it is no longer used.
so there's no need to enable the RX of invalid frames just to do ANI.
The if_ath code and AR5212 ANI code setup the RX filter bits to enable
receiving OFDM/CCK errors if the device doesn't have the hardware
MIB counters. It isn't initialising it for the AR5416+ because all of
those chips have hardware MIB counters.
This fixes the odd (and performance affecting!) situation where if ani
is enabled (via sysctl dev.ath.X.intmit) then suddenly there's be a very
large volume of phy errors - which is good to track, but not what was
intended. Since each PHY error is a received (0 length) frame, it can
significantly tie up the RX side of things.
equal to secondary counters:
primary_localcnt = secondary_remotecnt

Previously it was done wrong and split-brain was observed after
primary had synchronized up-to-date data from secondary.

This (almost) gives us the address space back (at the bottom) that we lost
at the top.
Region 0 has traditionally been reserved for IA-32 emulation, which has not
been of great interest. By starting 64-bit processes at the 4G boundary we
at least preserve some of the advantages:
1. Any invalid pointer cast (from int to pointer and back) will still
always fail and not only when more than 4GB of memory is in use.
2. Memory sharing between 64-bit and 32-bit processes is still possibly
by using addresses < 4G.
It's still not ready for prime-time - there's some TX niggles with these 11n
cards that I'm still trying to wrap my head around, and AMPDU-TX is just not
implemented so things will come to a crashing halt if you're not careful.
"extended capabilities" to refer to the new set of capability structures
starting at offset 0x100 in config space for PCI-express devices. For now
both function names will still work. I will merge this to older branches
to ease driver portability, but 9.0 will ship with a new pci_find_extcap()
function that locates extended capabilities instead.
