of the scan API.
The eventual aim is to have 'ieee80211_scan.c' have the net80211 and
driver facing scan API to start, finish and continue doing scanning
while 'ieee80211_swscan.c' implements the software scanner that
runs the scan task, handles probe request/reply bits, configures
the VAP off-channel, changes channel and does the scanning bits.
For NICs that do no scanning at all, the existing code is needed.
ath(4) and most of the other NICs (dumb USB ones in particular)
do little to no scan offload - it's all done in software.
Some NICs may do single channel at a time scanning; I haven't really
checked them out in detail.
iwn(4), the upcoming 7260 driver stuff, the new Qualcomm Atheros
11ac chipsets and the Atheros mobile/USB full-offload chips all
have complete scan engines in firmware. We don't have to drive
any of it at all - the firmware just needs to be told what to scan,
when to scan, how long to scan. It'll take care of going off
channel, pausing TX/RX appropriately, sending sleep notification
to the AP, sending probe requests and handling probe responses.
It'll do passive/active scan itself. It's almost completely
transparent to the network stack - all we see are scan notifications
when it finishes scanning each channel and beacons/probe responses
when it does its thing. Once it's done we get a final notification
that the scan is complete, with some scan results in the message.
The iwn(4) NICs handle doing active scanning too as an option
and will handle waiting appropriately on 5GHz passive channels
before active scanning.
There's some more refactoring, tidying up and lock assertions to
sprinkle around to tidy this whole thing up before I turn swscan.c
into another set of ic methods to override by the driver or
alternate scan module. So in theory this is all one big no-op
commit. In theory.
Tested:
* iwn(4) 5200, STA mode
* ath(4) 6205, STA mode
* ath(4) - various NICs, AP mode
may perform a blocking memory allocation, which is unsafe when holding a
mutex.

advertises its C3 state as a C2 state in _CST). Just play it safe and
disable both C2 and C3 states if a user forces the use of the TSC as the
timecounter on such CPUs.

has support for the .codeXX directives). However, it is desirable, for
a time, to allow kernels to be built with clang 3.4. Historically, it
has been advantageous to allow stable X-1 to build kernels the old
way (so long as the impact of doing so is small), and this restores
that ability.
Also, centralize the addition of ${ASM_CFLAGS.${.IMPSRC}}, place it in
kern.mk rather than kern.pre.mk so that all modules can benefit, and
give the same treatment to CFLAGS in kern.mk as well.
the knowledge of mbuf layout, and in particular constants such as M_EXT,
MLEN, MHLEN, and so on, in mbuf consumers by unifying various alignment
utility functions (M_ALIGN(), MH_ALIGN(), MEXT_ALIGN() in a single
M_ALIGN() macro, implemented by a now-inlined m_align() function:
- Move m_align() from uipc_mbuf.c to mbuf.h; mark as __inline.
- Reimplement M_ALIGN(), MH_ALIGN(), and MEXT_ALIGN() using m_align().
- Update consumers around the tree to simply use M_ALIGN().
This change eliminates a number of cases where mbuf consumers must be aware
of whether or not mbufs returned by the allocator use external storage, but
also assumptions about the size of the returned mbuf. This will make it
easier to introduce changes in how we use external storage, as well as
features such as variable-size mbufs.

building with gcc 4.2
This has been requested several times over the past few months by several
people (including me), because gcc 4.2 just gets it wrong too often. It's
causing us to litter the code with lots of bogus initializers just to
squelch the warnings. We still have clang and coverity telling us about
uninitialized variables, and they do so more accurately.

sys/kern_subr_taskqueue.c:
Modify taskqueue_drain_all() processing to use a temporary
"barrier task", rather than rely on a user task that may
be destroyed during taskqueue_drain_all()'s execution. The
barrier task is queued behind all previously queued tasks
and then has its priority elevated so that future tasks
cannot pass it in the queue.
Use a similar barrier scheme to drain threads processing
current tasks. This requires taskqueue_run_locked() to
insert and remove the taskqueue_busy object for the running
thread for every task processed.

Remove warning about live-lock issues with taskqueue_drain_all()
