This was really too big of a commit even if everything worked, but there
are multiple new issues introduced in the one huge commit, so it's not
worth keeping this until it's fixed.
I'll work on splitting this up into logical chunks and introduce them one
at a time over the next week or two.

This should bring -CURRENT and the github repo into close enough sync to
allow small feature branches rather than a large chain of interdependant
patches being developed out of tree. The reset of the synchronization
should be able to be completed on github by splitting the remaining
changes that are not yet ready into short feature branches for later
review as smaller commits.
Here is a summary of changes included in this patch:
1) More checks when INVARIANTS are enabled for eariler problem
detection
2) Group Task Queue cleanups
- Fix use of duplicate shortdesc for gtaskqueue malloc type.
Some interfaces such as memguard(9) use the short description to
identify malloc types, so duplicates should be avoided.
3) Allow gtaskqueues to use ithreads in addition to taskqueues
- In some cases, this can improve performance
4) Better logging when taskqgroup_attach*() fails to set interrupt
affinity.
5) Do not start gtaskqueues until they're needed
6) Have mp_ring enqueue function enter the ABDICATED rather than BUSY
state. This moves the TX to the gtaskq and allows processing to
continue faster as well as make TX batching more likely.
7) Add an ift_txd_errata function to struct if_txrx. This allows
drivers to inspect/modify mbufs before transmission.
8) Add a new IFLIB_NEED_ZERO_CSUM for drivers to indicate they need
checksums zeroed for checksum offload to work. This avoids modifying
packet data in the TX path when possible.
9) Use ithreads for iflib I/O instead of taskqueues
10) Clean up ioctl and support async ioctl functions
11) Prefetch two cachlines from each mbuf instead of one up to 128B. We
often need to parse packet header info beyond 64B.
12) Fix potential memory corruption due to fence post error in
bit_nclear() usage.
13) Improved hang detection and handling
14) If the packet is smaller than MTU, disable the TSO flags.
This avoids extra packet parsing when not needed.
15) Move TCP header parsing inside the IS_TSO?() test.
This avoids extra packet parsing when not needed.
16) Pass chains of mbufs that are not consumed by lro to if_input()
rather call if_input() for each mbuf.
17) Re-arrange packet header loads to get as much work as possible done
before a cache stall.
18) Lock the context when calling IFDI_ATTACH_PRE()/IFDI_ATTACH_POST()/
IFDI_DETACH();
19) Attempt to distribute RX/TX tasks across cores more sensibly,
especially when RX and TX share an interrupt. RX will attempt to
take the first threads on a core, and TX will attempt to take
successive threads.
20) Allow iflib_softirq_alloc_generic() to request affinity to the same
cpus an interrupt has affinity with. This allows TX queues to
ensure they are serviced by the socket the device is on.
21) Add new iflib sysctls to net.iflib:
- timer_int - interval at which to run per-queue timers in ticks
- force_busdma
22) Add new per-device iflib sysctls to dev.X.Y.iflib
- rx_budget allows tuning the batch size on the RX path
- watchdog_events Count of watchdog events seen since load
23) Fix error where netmap_rxq_init() could get called before
IFDI_INIT()
24) e1000: Fixed version of r323008: post-cold sleep instead of DELAY
when waiting for firmware
- After interrupts are enabled, convert all waits to sleeps
- Eliminates e1000 software/firmware synchronization busy waits after
startup
25) e1000: Remove special case for budget=1 in em_txrx.c
- Premature optimization which may actually be incorrect with
multi-segment packets
26) e1000: Split out TX interrupt rather than share an interrupt for
RX and TX.
- Allows better performance by keeping RX and TX paths separate
27) e1000: Separate igb from em code where suitable
Much easier to understand separate functions and "if (is_igb)" than
previous tests like "if (reg_icr & (E1000_ICR_RXSEQ | E1000_ICR_LSC))"

This creates conflicts with FreeBSD variations that may use it. The
usage of the flag M_TOOBIG is limited to iflib queue, thus using
one of M_PROTO flags is fine. There is no need to grab global flag.

Post-cold sleep instead of DELAY when waiting for firmware.
Convert softc mutex to an SX lock. Change all waits to sleeps
once interrupts are enabled (and it is safe to sleep).

Clang 5.0.0 got better warnings about printf format strings using %zd,
and this leads to the following -Werror warning on e.g. arm:
sys/net/iflib.c:1517:8: error: format specifies type 'ssize_t' (aka 'int') but the argument has type 'bus_size_t' (aka 'unsigned long') [-Werror,-Wformat]
sctx->isc_tx_maxsize, nsegments, sctx->isc_tx_maxsegsize);

iflib - reset fl-ifl_fragidx to 0 on iflib_fl_bufs_free(). This caused the
panic in em/igb when adding it to a bridge device.
iflib - Handle out of order packet delivery from hardware in support of LRO
Out of order updates to rxd's is fixed in r315217. However, it is not
completely fixed. While refilling the buffers, iflib is not considering
the out of order descriptors. Hence, it is refilling sequentially.
"idx" variable in _iflib_fl_refill routine is incremented sequentially.
By doing refilling sequentially, it will override the SGEs that
are *IN USE* by other connections. Fix is to maintain a bitmap of
rx descriptors and differentiate the used one with unused one and
refill only at the unused indices. This patch also fixes a
few bugs in bnxt, related to the same feature.

The igb(4) driver definitely used to use this in its old timer function and
I see no reason to restrict it to that driver only.

We found routing performance dropped significantly when configuring
FreeBSD as a router, we are applying the following changes in order to
resolve those issues and hopefully perform better.
- don't prefetch the flags array, we usually don't need it
- prefetch the next cache line of each of the software descriptor arrays as
well as the first cache line of each of the next four packets' mbufs and
clusters
- reduce max copy size to 63 bytes
- convert rx soft descriptors from array of structures to a structure of arrays
- update copyrights

success and a good value. Only then try to use it and set the MSIX_ENABLE
bit.
With the current em(4) driver we have observed failures in this case in a
specific environment when pci_find_cap() would not return the assumed
value, which meant we ended up writing to PCI register 2 (PCI_DEVICE_ID)
which is read-only.

Add internal tracking of smp startup status to reliably figure out
what methods are to be used to get gtaskqueue up and running.
e1000:
Calculating this pointer gives undefined behaviour when (last == -1)
(it is before the buffer). The pointer is always followed. Panics
occurred when it points to an unmapped page. Otherwise, the pointed-to
garbage tends to not have the E1000_TXD_STAT_DD bit set in it, so in the
broken case the loop was usually null and the function just returned, and
this was acidentally correct.

mp_maxid or CPU_FOREACH() as appropriate. This fixes a number of places in
the kernel that assumed CPU IDs are dense in [0, mp_ncpus) and would try,
for example, to run tasks on CPUs that did not exist or to allocate too
few buffers on systems with sparse CPU IDs in which there are holes in the
range and mp_maxid > mp_ncpus. Such circumstances generally occur on
systems with SMT, but on which SMT is disabled. This patch restores system
operation at least on POWER8 systems configured in this way.
There are a number of other places in the kernel with potential problems
in these situations, but where sparse CPU IDs are not currently known
to occur, mostly in the ARM machine-dependent code. These will be fixed
in a follow-up commit after the stable/11 branch.
