This was broken by me when merging the 802.11n aggregate descriptor chain
setup with the default descriptor chain setup, in preparation for supporting
AR9380 NICs.
The corner case here is quite specific - if you queue an aggregate frame
with >1 frames in it, and the last subframe has only one descriptor making
it up, then that descriptor won't have the rate control information
copied into it. Look at what happens inside ar5416FillTxDesc() if
both firstSeg and lastSeg are set to 1.
Then when ar5416ProcTxDesc() goes to fill out ts_rate based on the
transmit index, it looks at the rate control fields in that descriptor
and dutifully sets it to be 0.
It doesn't happen for non-aggregate frames - if they have one descriptor,
the first descriptor already has rate control info.
I removed the call to ath_hal_setuplasttxdesc() when I migrated the
code to use the "new" style aggregate chain routines from the HAL.
But I missed this particular corner case.
This is a bit inefficient with MIPS boards as it involves a few redundant
writes into non-cachable memory. I'll chase that up when it matters.
Tested:
* AR9280 STA mode, TCP iperf traffic
* Rui Paulo <rpaulo@> first reported this and has verified it on
his AR9160 based AP.

- Implement a function to ensure that all preempted threads have switched
back out at least once. Use this to make sure there are no stale
references to the old ktr_buf or the lock profiling buffers before
updating them.

sleep, and perform the page allocations with VM_ALLOC_SYSTEM
class. Previously, the allocation was also allowed to completely drain
the reserve of the free pages, being translated to VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT
request class for vm_page_alloc() and similar functions.
Allow the caller of malloc* to request the 'deep drain' semantic by
providing M_USE_RESERVE flag, now translated to VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT
class. Previously, it resulted in less aggressive VM_ALLOC_SYSTEM
allocation class.
Centralize the translation of the M_* malloc(9) flags in the single
inline function malloc2vm_flags().

page. Therefore, it is really inappropriate for use by the function
uma_small_alloc(). The effect of using it was that every page was zeroed
at least once and possibly twice if M_ZERO was passed as a "wait" flag.
The sole purpose of this change is to make sure that sizeof produces
"canonical" sizes for these structures. This is to avoid triggering
bugs in the BIOSes that properly handle only the canonical values of
input length provided to INT 13h AH=48h.
The canonical sizes are: 30 for v2, 66 for v3, etc.
Buggy BIOS code probably looks like:
if (input_length > 30) { /* > v2 */
assume that input length is 66 /* assume v3 or later */
}
This should fix boot problems at least on Supermicro X8DT6 and possibly
on P410i Smart Array Controller (as found in e.g. HP DL360 G7).

crash. When truncating a file that never made it to disk we use the
canceled allocation dependencies to hold the journal records until
the truncation completes. Previously allocdirect dependencies on
the id_bufwait list were not considered and their journal space
could expire before the bitmaps were written. Cancel them and attach
them to the freeblks as we do for other allocdirects.
