dc1c4b9270 Disallow passing in a count of zero bytes to the bus_space(9) functions.
Passing a count of zero on i386 and amd64 for [I386|AMD64]_BUS_SPACE_MEM
causes a crash/hang since the 'loop' instruction decrements the counter
before checking if it's zero.

545c74c108 Remove the note about possible unlocking during vunref(9). It might
only happen if VOP_INACTIVATE() drops the vnode lock, which is quite
unreasonable behaviour for filesystem, and should not be mentioned

445cd0f1c5 Remove the description of the link0 link option, since r215297 the master
media option generally should be used instead. Actually I think the lists
of media types should be removed from the manual pages of MAC drivers
altogether and users just pointed to the output of `ifconfig -m` instead;
even before r215297 there were several outdated descriptions, technically
it's wrong most of the time as not the MAC drivers support these media
types but actually the PHY drivers do and it generally doesn't make sense
to maintain these lists in every manual page of a driver as the media is
auto-detected.

129853101d sh: Add printf builtin.
This was removed in 2001 but I think it is appropriate to add it back:
* I do not want to encourage people to write fragile and non-portable echo
  commands by making printf much slower than echo.
* Recent versions of Autoconf use it a lot.
* Almost no software still wants to support systems that do not have
  printf(1) at all.
* In many other shells printf is already a builtin.

Side effect: printf is now always the builtin version (which behaves
identically to /usr/bin/printf) and cannot be overridden via PATH (except
via the undocumented %builtin mechanism).

Code size increases about 5K on i386. Embedded folks might want to replace
/usr/bin/printf with a hard link to /usr/bin/alias.

7c21b2dc77 Add a man page for usb_quirk module, plus references in other man pages,
and updated comments in the usb_quirk.h header file.

The main purpose of this is to expose the quirks for ejecting 3G
modules. usb_modeswitch in Linux does a great job of collecting
information on these, and with the quirks module people can try out the
modeswitch config file entries on FreeBSD, hence the SCSI strings in the
man page.

a7f4df4adc Don't mention 'device acpi' or loading ACPI as a kernel module since the
latter is not supported.  This is also more consistent with manpages for
other vendor-specific drivers such as acpi_ibm(4) and acpi_sony(4).

fed6d69895 Use shorten model name instead of showing all controller model
numbers. bge(4) supports too many models such that it's
unreasonable to list all these controllers in one line description
of name. While I'm here mention that BCM590x/BCM5779x is Fast
Ethernet controller.
bge(4) still lacks support for some controllers but supporting
these controllers should be easy now and adding new controllers
do not require touching .Nd any more.

41dcd4566c Mostly revert r203420, and add similar functionality into ada(4) since the
existing code caused problems with some SCSI controllers.

A new sysctl kern.cam.ada.spindown_shutdown has been added that controls
whether or not to spin-down disks when shutting down.
Spinning down the disks unloads/parks the heads - this is
much better than removing power when the disk is still
spinning because otherwise an Emergency Unload occurs which may cause damage
to the actuator.
