Add cpuctl(4) ioctl CPUCTL_EVAL_CPU_FEATURES which forces re-read of
cpu_features, cpu_features2, cpu_stdext_features, and
std_stdext_features2.
The intent is to allow the kernel to see the changes in the CPU
features after micocode update. Of course, the update is not atomic
across variables and not synchronized with readers. See the man page
warning as well.

Using the -s flag on devices is extraordinarily slow due to using fseek(3) a
little too conservatively. Address this by using fseek on character/block
devices as well, falling back to getchar(3) only if we fail to seek or we're
operating on tape drives, where fseek may succeed while not actually being
supported.

The emac bindings that are landing in Linux 4.15 specify a syscon property
on the emac node that point to /soc/syscon. Use this property if it's
specified, but maintain backwards compatibility with the old method.
The older method is still used for boards that we get .dtb from u-boot, such
as pine64, that did not yet have stable emac bindings.

This avoids re-reading a variable after it has been updated via an
atomic op. It is just a cosmetic cleanup as the read value was only
used to control a diagnostic printf that should rarely occur (if ever).

For the pathname reported in kinfo_vmentry structures (kve_path), the
sysctl handlers walk the object chain to find the bottom-most VM object.
This permits a COW mapping of a file with dirty pages to report the
pathname of the originally mapped file. Do the same for the object
offset (kve_offset) computing a cumulative offset during the same object
walk so that the reported offset is relative to the reported pathname.
Note that ptrace(PT_VM_ENTRY) already returns a cumulative offset
rather than the raw offset of the VM map entry.
Note also that this does not affect procstat -v output (even structured
output) since that output does not include the kve_offset field.

Even though pthreads doesn't support this, there are various alternative
APIs that use this. For example, uv_cond_timedwait() accepts a relative
timeout. So does Rust's std::sync::Condvar::wait_timeout().
Though I personally think that relative timeouts are bad (due to
imprecision for repeated operations), it does seem that people want
this. Extend the existing futex functions to keep track of whether an
absolute timeout is used in a boolean flag.

Disabled the use of RSS hash from the network card aka flowid for
lagg(4) interfaces by default as it's currently incompatible with
the lacp and loadbalance protocols.
The incompatibility is due to the fact that the flowid isn't know
for the first packet of a new outbound stream which can result in
the hash calculation method changing and hence a stream being
incorrectly split across multiple interfaces during normal
operation.
This can be re-enabled by setting the following in loader.conf:
net.link.lagg.default_use_flowid="1"

The beri boot loaders depend on symbols defined in linker scripts or
assembly files. The boot loaders do not care about the type of these
symbols but just want to extract a pointer to them. Older versions of
GCC permitted external symbols to be declared of type 'void' and then
'&foo' generated a void pointer to the memory at the symbol's address.
However, void objects are not valid C and newer versions of GCC error if
these are used. Instead, declare these symbols as being bytes (or
an array of bytes in the cheri_sdcard_vaddr case).

Prior to r325114, bsd.init.mk was included after assignments to CFLAGS and
LDFLAGS in these Makefiles. After r325114, bare assignments (= rather than
+=) lost system-assigned default values that are needed when compiling with
an external toolchain. CFLAGS in both Makefiles already uses +=. This
commit changes LDFLAGS to use +=. While here, depend on the LDFLAGS update
in the parent Makefile.inc to set -nostdlib.

SDM editions 64 and below stated that it is enough to use MFENCe or
LFENCE to serialize x2APIC register writes. New edition 65 requires
either full serialization instruction or MFENCE;LFENCE sequence. Use
the later, FreeBSD needs serialization to ensure that writes done
before IPI request are visible to the target IPI CPU.
