This fixes, at least, panics in ncr_attach() on i386's with about 5MB
of memory. The restriction was a hack to leave some low memory for ISA
DMA, but on i386's we now allocate pages from the top down, so all the
restriction did was cause our allocations to fail when there is no free
memory above 1MB.
some swapper problems analogous to those experienced with ccd.
This fix is a kludge: since we currently don't track the "sector size"
in a volume label, we guess a worst case (4 kB, as used by vnode
devices). If the concept of sector size is here to stay, I'll make
some changes to track the "sector size" of a volume. This will
probably be the maximum of the sector sizes of all component drives,
but things could get ugly if we start allowing non-standard sector
sizes such as 524 bytes.

ML6692 PHY. The Micro Linear driver is my own; the ThunderLAN driver is
a port of the NetBSD driver with various hacks. The ML driver is necessary
to support the Olicom OC-2326 ThunderLAN-based NIC.
Also regenerated miidevs.h to pick up the proper 'obtained from'
revision string.
lockrange: correctly expand rangelock struct, including expanding a
null struct. Previously lockrange would attempt to lock a
NULL pointer under these circumstances.

initialized subdisks.
Tidy up some comments.
Eliminate sddownstate(); it wasn't being used any more. Return
REQUEST_DOWN instead.
Add setstate_by_force() to implement the VINUM_SETSTATE_FORCE ioctl
for diddling individual object states. This is a repair tool which
can also be used for panicing the system. Use with utmost care if at
all.
avoids a race condition where multiple RAID-5 subdisks are being
revived at the same time. The locks should also prevent conflicts
with user requests on concatenated and striped plexes, but this needs
more work.
Tidy up some comments.
Diskslice/label code not yet handled.
Vinum, i4b, alpha, pc98 not dealt with (left to respective Maintainers)
Add the correct hook for devfs to kern_conf.c
The net result of this excercise is that a lot less files depends on DEVFS,
and devtoname() gets more sensible output in many cases.
A few drivers had minor additional cleanups performed relating to cdevsw
registration.
A few drivers don't register a cdevsw{} anymore, but only use make_dev().
instead, use generic entry points for all drivers.
- Eliminate bogus makedev().
- Eliminate softc in the lower drivers, as it is no longer necessary.
