cem ff82ae2996 NTB: workaround for high traffic hardware hang
This patch comes from Dave Jiang's Linux tree, davejiang/ntb.  It hasn't
been accepted into Linus' tree, so I do not have an authoritative SHA1
to point at.  Original commit log:

=====================================================================
A hardware errata causes the NTB to hang when heavy bi-directional
traffic in addition to the usage of BAR0/1 (where the registers reside,
including the doorbell registers to trigger interrupts).

This workaround is only available on Haswell and Broadwell platform.
The workaround is to enable split BAR in the BIOS to allow the 64bit
BAR4 to be split into two 32bit BAR4 and BAR5. The BAR4 shall be pointed
to LAPIC region of the remote host. We will bypass the db mechanism and
directly trigger the MSIX interrupts. The offsets and vectors are
exchanged during transport scratch pad negotiation. The scratch pads are
now overloaded in order to allow the exchange of the information. This
gets around using the doorbell and prevents the lockup with additional
pcode changes in BIOS.

=====================================================================

Notable changes in the FreeBSD version of this patch:
* The MSIX BAR is configurable, like hw.ntb.b2b_mw_idx (msix_mw_idx).
  The Linux version of the patch only uses BAR4.
* MSIX negotiation aborts if the link goes down.

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree.  See build(7)
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process.  See build(7), config(8),
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
for more information.

Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
`buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory.  GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
