Remove code that years ago was closing race between request submission
to SIM and device/SIM freeze. That race become impossible after moving from
spl to mutex locking, while this workaround causes some unexpected effects.
I have found that it is not only desktop CPUs problem. but mobile also.
Probably AP on laptops just started initially at lower frequency, hiding
the problem.
Disable frequency validation by default, for systems with more then one CPU,
until we can implement it properly. It looks like making more harm now then
benefits. Add 'hw.est.strict' loader tunable to control it.
Now my iXsystems Invincibook is able to run at 800MHz lowest frequency,
instead of 1200MHz before, when 800MHz was incorrectly reported invalid.
CPU core, only pair of them. As result, both cores are running on highest
one of requested frequencies, and that is reported by status register.
Such behavior confuses frequency validation logic, as it runs on only
one core, as SMP is not yet launched, making EIST completely unusable.
To workaround this, add check for validation result. If we haven't found
at least two usable frequencies, then probably we are looking bad and have
to trust data provided by BIOS as-is.
errors. So far 3 different classes are present (correctable,
uncorrectable and fatal) but more can be added easilly.

These controllers provide combination of AHCI for SATA and legacy

not properly set up. r199067 added the call to TUNABLE_INT_FETCH() to
initializecpu() that results in hang because AP are started when kernel
environment is already dynamic and thus needs to acquire mutex, that is
too early in AP start sequence to work.
Extract the code that should be executed only once, because it sets
up global variables, from initializecpu() to initializecpucache(),
and call the later only from hammer_time() executed on BSP. Now,
TUNABLE_INT_FETCH() is done only once at BSP at the early boot stage.

Clean up the ttys files shipped with PicoBSD, NanoBSD and TinyBSD. While
there, it seems one of them still had references to sio(4). Make it in
sync with what we do in the base system.
Right now syscons(4) uses a cons25-style terminal emulator. The
disadvantages of that are:
- Little compatibility with embedded devices with serial interfaces.
- Bad bandwidth efficiency, mainly because of the lack of scrolling
regions.
- A very hard transition path to support for modern character sets like
UTF-8.
Our terminal emulation library, libteken, has been supporting
xterm-style terminal emulation for months, so flip the switch and make
everyone use an xterm-style console driver.
I still have to enable this on i386. Right now pc98 and i386 share the
same /etc/ttys file. I'm not going to switch pc98, because it uses its
own Kanji-capable cons25 emulator.
IMPORTANT: What to do if things go wrong (i.e. graphical artifacts):
- Run the application inside script(1), try to reduce the problem and
send me the log file.
- In the mean time, you can run `vidcontrol -T cons25' and `export
TERM=cons25' so you can run applications the same way you did before.
You can also build your kernel with `options TEKEN_CONS25' to make all
virtual terminals use the cons25 emulator by default.

from CD on 64-bit hardware to replace existing band-aids. This occurred
when the preloaded mdroot required too many mappings for the static
buffer.
Since we only use the translations buffer once, allocate a dynamic
buffer on the stack. This early in the boot process, the call chain
is quite short and we can be assured of having sufficient stack space.

callout_reset() canceled a pending callout, call LLE_REMREF()
to drop a reference for the canceled callout.
