This is used by the 'athsurvey' command to print out channel survey
statistics - % busy times transmit, receive and airtime.
It's as buggy and incomplete as the rest of the HAL survey support -
notably, tying into the ANI code to read channel stats and occasionally
getting garbage counters isn't very nice. It also doesn't (yet!) get
channel survey information during a scan. But it's good enough for
basic air-time debugging, which is why I'm committing it in this state.

* For now there's no exposed control over classic / LNA antenna diversity,

I don't like having it in this function; I may migrate it to ar9300_freebsd.c
at some point to keep the HAL code pollution down.
This allows ANI to be disabled via a sysctl.
Tested:
* AR9331, STA/TDMA modes
This is a custom FreeBSD HAL method that is used by the TDMA code
to program the beacon timers directly without any guesswork/assumptions
by the HAL.
This brings up basic TDMA master/slave support on the AR9380 HAL,
however there are other issues preventing it from being stable.
(I'm seeing beacon interval instability, which may be due to
busy 2GHz air, but also may be due to some HAL configuration
issues with regards to ANI, or hardware timer programming, etc.)
Tested:
* AR9331 (Carambola2), STA, AP, adhoc and TDMA master mode.
The QCA9565 can have RFKILL on GPIO Pin 11, and thus we need to configure
it up correctly or the NIC may not function.
I'm not sure why the AR9382 can't use GPIO 8 / GPIO 11 ; it's likely
hooked up to some external LNA or filter. The real solution is to
make it only block pin 8 / pin 11 for AR9382, but the AR9382 probes
like an AR9380. Sigh.

hw.x2apic_enable tunable allows disabling it from the loader prompt.
To closely repeat effects of the uncached memory ops when accessing
registers in the xAPIC mode, the x2APIC writes to MSRs are preceeded
by mfence, except for the EOI notifications. This is probably too
strict, only ICR writes to send IPI require serialization to ensure
that other CPUs see the previous actions when IPI is delivered. This
may be changed later.
In vmm justreturn IPI handler, call doreti_iret instead of doing iretd
inline, to handle corner conditions.
Note that the patch only switches LAPICs into x2APIC mode. It does not
enables FreeBSD to support > 255 CPUs, which requires parsing x2APIC
MADT entries and doing interrupts remapping, but is the required step
on the way.

socket-buffer implementations, introduce a return value for MCLGET()
(and m_cljget() that underlies it) to allow the caller to avoid testing
M_EXT itself. Update all callers to use the return value.
With this change, very few network device drivers remain aware of
M_EXT; the primary exceptions lie in mbuf-chain pretty printers for
debugging, and in a few cases, custom mbuf and cluster allocation
implementations.
NB: This is a difficult-to-test change as it touches many drivers for
which I don't have physical devices. Instead we've gone for intensive
review, but further post-commit review would definitely be appreciated
to spot errors where changes could not easily be made mechanically,
but were largely mechanical in nature.
