IFF_DRV_RUNNING, as well as the move from ifnet.if_flags to
ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for
synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This
helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in
maintaining the interface flags field.
Many __FreeBSD__ and __FreeBSD_version checks maintained and continued;
some less so.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

occurring within AML. This should fix Toshibas, among others. Thanks
to Robert Moore of Intel for the fix.

o reorg directory structure to have a single set of public binary builds
shared by all systems
o support for new parts (all shipping pci/cardbus parts to this date work)
o new capabilities for identifying various chip features
o set/get tx power cap for supporting 802.11h information element
o revised api for set/get tx queue properties
o support for updating CTS in frames when doing packet bursting
o support for querying which tx queues have pending interrupts
instead for the time being. Intel should fix this.
Note that if this commit is correct, it is made on the vendor branch.
We expect the Intel folks to fix it, and we don't want to unnecessarily
take files off the vendor branch.

ACPI_DEBUG case. Without this, use of allocated memory is unaligned and
causes a trap on ia64. Intel may fix this differently in a subsequent
release but this is adequate for now.
