db4fdbd041 This commit adds device driver support for the Sundance Technologies ST201
PCI fast ethernet controller. Currently, the only card I know that uses
this chip is the D-Link DFE-550TX. (Don't ask me where to buy these: the
only cards I have are samples sent to me by D-Link.)

This driver is the first to make use of the miibus code once I'm sure
it all works together nicely, I'll start converting the other drivers.

The Sundance chip is a clone of the 3Com 3c90x Etherlink XL design
only with its own register layout. Support is provided for ifmedia,
hardware multicast filtering, bridging and promiscuous mode.

e6adc2c52e Fix short timeout problems with the pt(4) driver:
- increase the default timeout from 10 seconds to 60 seconds
- add a new kernel option, SCSI_PT_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT, that lets users specify
  the default timeout for the pt driver to use
- add two new ioctls, one to get the timeout for a given pt device, the
  other to set the timeout for a given pt device.  The idea is that
  userland applications using the device can set the timeout to suit their
  purposes.  The ioctls are defined in a new header file, sys/ptio.h

No one's objected, so I've made this change.  This sort of fixes docs/12220,
by removing the reference to the undocumented getkerninfo(2) call.  So I'll
close the PR as well.

e8fde6f570 Bruce noted that the use of err(), fixed to errx() in the last commit,
did not specify an exit code.  This implies the use of either a hand-
rolled err() (Bruce's suggestion) or a random error code (my suggestion),
both of which are against the style guidelines.  This commit specifies
the correct error code (implicitly).  This also changes the error message
to be a little more helpful.
