While there fix the layout of function headers (noticable in long headers)
Fix up some style nits. It's Perl and should be written in that style.
through' to the C compiler.
* Allow the interface to specify a default implementation for methods.
* Allow 'static' methods which are not device specific.
* Add a simple scheme for probe routines to return a priority value. To
make life simple, priority values are negative numbers (positive numbers
are standard errno codes) with zero being the highest priority. The
driver which returns the highest priority will be chosen for the device.
"use" and replaces it with equivalent inline code. The reason is that
Perl has some very nasty circular dependancies, and I am trying to
get the System Perl upgraded by one maintenance level.
The basic rule, until I can find a way to solve this, is that
the build tools MAY NOT use any library code; it must all be inline.
i386 platform boots, it is no longer ISA-centric, and is fully dynamic.
Most old drivers compile and run without modification via 'compatability
shims' to enable a smoother transition. eisa, isapnp and pccard* are
not yet using the new resource manager. Once fully converted, all drivers
will be loadable, including PCI and ISA.
(Some other changes appear to have snuck in, including a port of Soren's
ATA driver to the Alpha. Soren, back this out if you need to.)
This is a checkpoint of work-in-progress, but is quite functional.
The bulk of the work was done over the last few years by Doug Rabson and
Garrett Wollman.

* bus_setup_intr() as a wrapper for BUS_SETUP_INTR
* bus_teardown_intr() as a wrapper for BUS_TEARDOWN_INTR
* device_get_nameunit() which returns e.g. "foo0" for name "foo" and unit 0.
* device_set_desc_copy() malloc a copy of the description string.
* device_quiet(), device_is_quiet(), device_verbose() suppress probe message.
Add one method to the BUS interface, BUS_CHILD_DETACHED() which is called
after the child has been detached to allow the bus to clean up any memory
which it allocated on behalf of the child.
I also fixed a bug which corrupted the list of drivers in a devclass if
a driver was added to more than one devclass.
of the input file more strict and the error messages more elaborate.
Second, the output file has slightly improved looks when >80 character
lines are concerned (I needed a 80 character line formatter anyway for
work...)."
