Make sure that we call if_free(ifp) after bus_teardown_intr. Since we
could get an interrupt after we free the ifp, and the interrupt
handler depended on the ifp being still alive, this could, in theory,
cause a crash. Eliminate this possibility by moving the if_free to
after the bus_teardown_intr() call.
In fact, this change do nothing for this driver. It is protected from
this by cp_destroy variable. This variable also protects driver from initiation
of any activity from network stack with disabled intr handler with this change
applied.

Reorder code to not depend on an ISO-C illegal forward extern declaration.
----------------------------
Reason: do not move large functions location without serious reason. The same
could be done by forward function declaration. Please do not enlarge diff
without a reason any more.

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.

You could turn this off by debug.mpsafenet=0 for full network
stack or via debug.{cp|cx|ctau}.mpsafenet for cp(4), cx(4) and
ctau(4) accordingly.

Also introduce a macro to be called by persistent nodes to signal their
persistence during shutdown to hide this mechanism from the node author.
Make node flags have a consistent style in naming.
Document the change.
Thanks to Sam for importing tags in a way that allowed this to be done.

Also allow the sr and ar drivers to create netgraph versions of their modules.
Document the change to the ksocket node.
The big lines are:
NODEV -> NULL
NOUDEV -> NODEV
udev_t -> dev_t
udev2dev() -> findcdev()
Various minor adjustments including handling of userland access to kernel
space struct cdev etc.
