MFtbemd:

Use MACHINE_CPUARCH in preference to MACHINE_ARCH. The former is the
source code location of the machine, the latter the binary output. In
general, we want to use MACHINE_CPUARCH instead of MACHINE_ARCH unless
we're tesitng for a specific target. The isn't even moot for
i386/amd64 where there's momemntum towards a MACHINE_CPUARCH == x86,
although a specific cleanup for that likely would be needed...

Add ofw_bus_if.h as a dependency on sparc64. Without this sparc64 kernel
builds had been succeeding if run serially but could fail if run in
parallel because the bge module build might start before ofw_bus_if.h
got created as part of the mainline kernel build.

Backout the change I made before 5.4-R since I wasn't aware that it was only
a problem with one particular switch module. Create a kernel option
BGE_FAKE_AUTONEG that restores the 5.4 behavior, which should make the DNLK
switch module work. IBM/Intel blades with Intel or AD switch modules should
work without patching or kernel options with this commit.

Hardware for testing provided by several folks, including
Danny Braniss <danny@cs.huji.ac.il>, Achim Patzner <ap@bnc.net>,
and OffMyServer.

Remove miidevs.h and generate it from miidevs at compile time.
The devlist2h.awk tool to do this has been repocopied to sys/tools/.

Add device driver support for the Broadcom BCM570x family of gigabit
ethernet controllers. This adds support for the 3Com 3c996-T, the
SysKonnect SK-9D21 and SK-9D41, and the built-in gigE NICs on
Dell PowerEdge 2550 servers. The latter configuration hauls ass:
preliminary measurements show TCP speeds of over 900Mbps using
only normal size frames.

TCP/IP checksum offload, jumbo frames and VLAN tag insertion/stripping
are supported, as well as interrupt moderation.

Still need to fix autonegotiation support for 1000baseSX NICs, but
beyond that, driver is pretty solid.
