frequency. This counter can be accessed coherently from both cores.
Use this as the preferred timecounter for the SWARM kernels.
The CP0 COUNT register is unusable as the timecounter on SMP platforms because
the COUNT registers on different CPUs are not guaranteed to be in sync.

Some 32-bit arithmetic operations (e.g. subu) have unpredicatable results

mapped kseg0 region.
The basic idea is to use KVA from the kseg2 region for mapping page
table pages that lie beyond the direct mapped region.
The TLB miss handler can now recursively fault into the TLB invalid
handler if it dereferences a kseg2 page table page address that is not
in the TLB.

o) Report half duplex status properly.
o) Do not unconditionally update the last known link status in the softc. If
report_link isn't set, when octeon_rgmx_config_speed is called the first
time it will tell the driver (essentially) that we have already marked the
interface up. Likewise, don't change media speed and duplex if only the
link status is at issue. [1]
o) Remove manual changing of link state and let octeon_rgmx_config_speed do the
heavy lifting. [1]

o) Use ABI, not ISA, to determine address length.

- We don't need to fall back to uncacheable memory to satisfy BUS_DMA_COHERENT
requests on these CPUs.
- The bus_dmamap_sync() is a no-op for these CPUs.
A side-effect of this change is rename DMAMAP_COHERENT flag to
DMAMAP_UNCACHEABLE. This conveys the purpose of the flag more accurately.

- make 'cpu_establish_hardintr' use the above function.
- (fix) change type of eirr/eimr from register_t to uint64_t. These
have to be 64bit otherwise we cannot handle interrupts from 32.
- (fix) use eimr to mask eirr before checking interrupts, so that we
will not handle masked interrupts.

The backtrace code tries to look for an instruction of the form "sw ra, x(sp)"
to figure out the program counter of the calling function. When we generate
the kernel exception frame we store the 'ra' at the time of the exception
using an instruction of the same form. The problem is that the 'ra' at the
time of the exception is not the same as the 'program counter' at the time
of the exception.
The fix is to save the 'exception program counter' register by staging
it through the 'ra' register.
The RX overflow is reported in bit 2 on real hardware and Linux driver
for the same device already has this defined correctly.

Getting the little-endian PCI bus working on the big-endian CPU proved to be
quite challenging. We let the PCI devices be mapped in the "match byte lanes"
address window. This is where they are mapped by the CFE and DMA transfers
generated to or from addresses within this window are not subject to automatic
byte-swapping.
However any access by the driver to memory-mapped pci space is redirected
via the "match bit lanes" address window. We get the benefit of automatic
byte swapping through this address window and drivers don't need to change
to deal with CPU big-endianness.

The nexus driver sees resource allocation requests for memory and irq

have code that detects this and makes two
transmit descriptors. However its possible
that the algorithm detects when the second
page is not used (when the data aligns perfectly
to the bottom of the page). This caused a 0
len descriptor to be added which locks up the
rge device. Skip such things with a continue.

Specifically on an SMP kernel it was observed that if both the
processors are doing an exit1() via ast()->postsig()->sigexit()
then we will deadlock.
This happens because exit1() calls vmspace_exit() that in turn
calls pmap_invalidate_all(). This function tries to do a
smp_rendezvous() which blocks because the other processor is not
responding to IPIs - because it too is doing AST processing with
interrupts disabled.
