that runs on host CPU) and MK_SOURCELESS_UCODE (for microcode).

drivers that only ever attach to a particular MAC driver, i.e. inphy(4),
ruephy(4) and xlphy(4), to the directory where the respective MAC driver
lives and only compile it into the kernel when the latter is also there,
also removing it from miibus.ko and moving it into the module of the
respective MAC driver.
- While at it, rename exphy.c, which comes from NetBSD where the MAC driver
it corresponds to also is named ex(4) instead of xl(4) but that in FreeBSD
actually identifies itself as xlphy(4), and its function names accordingly
for consistency.
- Additionally while at it, fix some minor style issues like whitespace
in the register headers and add multi-inclusion protection to inphyreg.h.

are almost based on BPF code and very similar with it except it's

Use MACHINE_CPUARCH in preference to MACHINE_ARCH. The former is the
source code location of the machine, the latter the binary output. In
general, we want to use MACHINE_CPUARCH instead of MACHINE_ARCH unless
we're tesitng for a specific target. The isn't even moot for
i386/amd64 where there's momemntum towards a MACHINE_CPUARCH == x86,
although a specific cleanup for that likely would be needed...
The driver is stub. It just creates device entry and feeds
reassembled packets from hardware into it.
If in future we would port wsmouse(4) from NetBSD, or make
sysmouse(4) to support absolute motion events, then the driver
can be extended to act as system mouse. Meanwhile, it just
presents a /dev/uep0, that can be utilized by X driver, that
I am going to commit to ports tree soon.
The name for the driver is chosen to be the same as in NetBSD,
however, due to different USB stacks this driver isn't a port.

This means that the kernel can be totally self contained now and is not
dependent on the last buildworld to update /usr/share/mk. This might
also make it easier to build 5.x kernels on 4.0 boxes etc, assuming
gensetdefs and config(8) are updated.
Packets are received inside USB bulk transfer callbacks, which run at
splusb() (actually splbio()). The packet input queues are meant to be
manipulated at splimp(). However the locking apparently breaks down under
certain circumstances and the input queues can get trampled.
There's a similar problem with if_ppp, which is driven by hardware/tty
interrupts from the serial driver, but which must also manipulate the
packet input queues at splimp(). The fix there is to use a netisr, and
that's the fix I used here. (I can hear you groaning back there. Hush up.)
The usb_ethersubr module maintains a single queue of its own. When a
packet is received in the USB callback routine, it's placed on this
queue with usb_ether_input(). This routine also schedules a soft net
interrupt with schednetisr(). The ISR routine then runs later, at
splnet, outside of the USB callback/interrupt context, and passes the
packet to ether_input(), hopefully in a safe manner.
The reason this is implemented as a separate module is that there are
a limited number of NETISRs that we can use, and snarfing one up for
each driver that needs it is wasteful (there will be three once I get
the CATC driver done). It also reduces code duplication to a certain
small extent. Unfortunately, it also needs to be linked in with the
usb.ko module in order for the USB ethernet drivers to share it.
Also removed some uneeded includes from if_aue.c and if_kue.c
