The r48589 promised to remove implicit inclusion of if_var.h soon. Prepare to this event, adding if_var.h to files that do need it. Also, include all includes that now are included due to implicit pollution via if_var.h

Remove duplicate const specifiers in many drivers (I hope I got all of them, please let me know if not). Most of these are of the form:
static const struct bzzt_type { [...list of members...] } const bzzt_devs[] = { [...list of initializers...] };
The second const is unnecessary, as arrays cannot be modified anyway, and if the elements are const, the whole thing is const automatically (e.g. it is placed in .rodata).
I have verified this does not change the binary output of a full kernel build (except for build timestamps embedded in the object files).

- There's no need to overwrite the default device method with the default one. Interestingly, these are actually the default for quite some time (bus_generic_driver_added(9) since r52045 and bus_generic_print_child(9) since r52045) but even recently added device drivers do this unnecessarily. Discussed with: jhb, marcel - While at it, use DEVMETHOD_END. Discussed with: jhb - Also while at it, use __FBSDID.

- Remove attempts to implement setting of BMCR_LOOP/MIIF_NOLOOP (reporting IFM_LOOP based on BMCR_LOOP is left in place though as it might provide useful for debugging). For most mii(4) drivers it was unclear whether the PHYs driven by them actually support loopback or not. Moreover, typically loopback mode also needs to be activated on the MAC, which none of the Ethernet drivers using mii(4) implements. Given that loopback media has no real use (and obviously hardly had a chance to actually work) besides for driver development (which just loopback mode should be sufficient for though, i.e one doesn't necessary need support for loopback media) support for it is just dropped as both NetBSD and OpenBSD already did quite some time ago. - Let mii_phy_add_media() also announce the support of IFM_NONE. - Restructure the PHY entry points to use a structure of entry points instead of discrete function pointers, and extend this to include a "reset" entry point. Make sure any PHY-specific reset routine is always used, and provide one for lxtphy(4) which disables MII interrupts (as is done for a few other PHYs we have drivers for). This includes changing NIC drivers which previously just called the generic mii_phy_reset() to now actually call the PHY-specific reset routine, which might be crucial in some cases. While at it, the redundant checks in these NIC drivers for mii->mii_instance not being zero before calling the reset routines were removed because as soon as one PHY driver attaches mii->mii_instance is incremented and we hardly can end up in their media change callbacks etc if no PHY driver has attached as mii_attach() would have failed in that case and not attach a miibus(4) instance. Consequently, NIC drivers now no longer should call mii_phy_reset() directly, so it was removed from EXPORT_SYMS. - Add a mii_phy_dev_attach() as a companion helper to mii_phy_dev_probe(). The purpose of that function is to perform the common steps to attach a PHY driver instance and to hook it up to the miibus(4) instance and to optionally also handle the probing, addition and initialization of the supported media. So all a PHY driver without any special requirements has to do in its bus attach method is to call mii_phy_dev_attach() along with PHY-specific MIIF_* flags, a pointer to its PHY functions and the add_media set to one. All PHY drivers were updated to take advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() as appropriate. Along with these changes the capability mask was added to the mii_softc structure so PHY drivers taking advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() but still handling media on their own do not need to fiddle with the MII attach arguments anyway. - Keep track of the PHY offset in the mii_softc structure. This is done for compatibility with NetBSD/OpenBSD. - Keep track of the PHY's OUI, model and revision in the mii_softc structure. Several PHY drivers require this information also after attaching and previously had to wrap their own softc around mii_softc. NetBSD/OpenBSD also keep track of the model and revision on their mii_softc structure. All PHY drivers were updated to take advantage as appropriate. - Convert the mebers of the MII data structure to unsigned where appropriate. This is partly inspired by NetBSD/OpenBSD. - According to IEEE 802.3-2002 the bits actually have to be reversed when mapping an OUI to the MII ID registers. All PHY drivers and miidevs where changed as necessary. Actually this now again allows to largely share miidevs with NetBSD, which fixed this problem already 9 years ago. Consequently miidevs was synced as far as possible. - Add MIIF_NOMANPAUSE and mii_phy_flowstatus() calls to drivers that weren't explicitly converted to support flow control before. It's unclear whether flow control actually works with these but typically it should and their net behavior should be more correct with these changes in place than without if the MAC driver sets MIIF_DOPAUSE.

Use if_maddr_rlock()/if_maddr_runlock() rather than IF_ADDR_LOCK()/ IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver programming interface or binary interface.
For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they don't actually access the multicast address list.

Give MEXTADD() another argument to make both void pointers to the free function controlable, instead of passing the KVA of the buffer storage as the first argument.
Fix all conventional users of the API to pass the KVA of the buffer as the first argument, to make this a no-op commit.
Likely break the only non-convetional user of the API, after informing the relevant committer.
Update the mbuf(9) manual page, which was already out of sync on this point.
Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800016 as there is no way to tell how many arguments a CPP macro needs any other way.
This paves the way for giving sendfile(9) a way to wait for the passed storage to have been accessed before returning.
This does not affect the memory layout or size of mbufs.

- Store pointer to the link-level address right in "struct ifnet" rather than in ifindex_table[]; all (except one) accesses are through ifp anyway. IF_LLADDR() works faster, and all (except one) ifaddr_byindex() users were converted to use ifp->if_addr.
- Stop storing a (pointer to) Ethernet address in "struct arpcom", and drop the IFP2ENADDR() macro; all users have been converted to use IF_LLADDR() instead.

Make sure that we call if_free(ifp) after bus_teardown_intr. Since we could get an interrupt after we free the ifp, and the interrupt handler depended on the ifp being still alive, this could, in theory, cause a crash. Eliminate this possibility by moving the if_free to after the bus_teardown_intr() call.

Propagate rename of IFF_OACTIVE and IFF_RUNNING to IFF_DRV_OACTIVE and IFF_DRV_RUNNING, as well as the move from ifnet.if_flags to ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in maintaining the interface flags field.
Many __FreeBSD__ and __FreeBSD_version checks maintained and continued; some less so.

Stop embedding struct ifnet at the top of driver softcs. Instead the struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note: - Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code. Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro. To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr. - The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

Replace the if_name and if_unit members of struct ifnet with new members if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.
This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo device creation and configuration symantics.

All current uses of pci_set_powerstate are bogus, at least in theory. However, they are presently necessary due to bigger bogusness in the pci bus layer not doing the right thing on suspend/resume or on initial device probe. This is exactly the sort of thing that the BURN_BRIDGES option was invented for. Mark all of them as BURN_BRIDGES. As soon as I have the powerstate stuff properly integrated into the pci bus code, I intend to remove all these workarounds.

network interface driver changes:
o don't strip the Ethernet header from inbound packets; pass packets up the stack intact (required significant changes to some drivers) o reference common definitions in net/ethernet.h (e.g. ETHER_ALIGN) o track ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API changes o track bpf changes (use BPF_TAP and BPF_MTAP) o track vlan changes (ifnet capabilities, revised processing scheme, etc.) o use if_input to pass packets "up" o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctls

Fix some memory bugs with regard to jumbo buffers. I made a mistake when converting from the old external mbuf buffer code to the new (with the MEXTADD() macro). Also free free list memory correctly in foo_free_jumbo_mem() routines: grab the head of the list, then remove it, _then_ free() it.
This fixes the memory corruption problem I've been chasing in the level 1 driver.

Add device driver support for the Level 1 LXT1001 NetCellerator gigabit ethernet controller chip. This device is used on some fiber optic gigE cards from SMC, D-Link and Addtron. Jumbograms and TCP/IP checksum offload on receive are supported. Hardware VLAN filtering is not, because it doesn't play well with our existing VLAN code. Also add manual page.
There is a 4.x version of this driver available at http://www.freebsd.org/~wpaul/Level1/4.x if anyone feels adventurous and wants to test it. I still need to do performance testing and tuning with this device.
(For my next trick, I will make the 3Com 3cR990 sit up and beg.)
