Fix various NIC drivers to properly cleanup static DMA resources. In particular, don't check the value of the bus_dma map against NULL to determine if either bus_dmamem_alloc() or bus_dmamap_load() succeeded. Instead, assume that bus_dmamap_load() succeeeded (and thus that bus_dmamap_unload() should be called) if the bus address for a resource is non-zero, and assume that bus_dmamem_alloc() succeeded (and thus that bus_dmamem_free() should be called) if the virtual address for a resource is not NULL.
In many cases these bugs could result in leaks when a driver was detached.

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.

- Import the common MII bitbang'ing code from NetBSD and convert drivers to take advantage of it instead of duplicating it. This reduces the size of the i386 GENERIC kernel by about 4k. The only potential in-tree user left unconverted is xe(4), which generally should be changed to use miibus(4) instead of implementing PHY handling on its own, as otherwise it makes not much sense to add a dependency on miibus(4)/mii_bitbang(4) to xe(4) just for the MII bitbang'ing code. The common MII bitbang'ing code also is useful in the embedded space for using GPIO pins to implement MII access. - Based on lessons learnt with dc(4) (see r185750), add bus barriers to the MII bitbang read and write functions of the other drivers converted in order to ensure the intended ordering. Given that register access via an index register as well as register bank/window switching is subject to the same problem, also add bus barriers to the respective functions of smc(4), tl(4) and xl(4). - Sprinkle some const.
Thanks to the following testers: Andrew Bliznak (nge(4)), nwhitehorn@ (bm(4)), yongari@ (sis(4) and ste(4)) Thanks to Hans-Joerg Sirtl for supplying hardware to test stge(4).

- 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.

Convert the PHY drivers to honor the mii_flags passed down and convert the NIC drivers as well as the PHY drivers to take advantage of the mii_attach() introduced in r213878 to get rid of certain hacks. For the most part these were: - Artificially limiting miibus_{read,write}reg methods to certain PHY addresses; we now let mii_attach() only probe the PHY at the desired address(es) instead. - PHY drivers setting MIIF_* flags based on the NIC driver they hang off from, partly even based on grabbing and using the softc of the parent; we now pass these flags down from the NIC to the PHY drivers via mii_attach(). This got us rid of all such hacks except those of brgphy() in combination with bce(4) and bge(4), which is way beyond what can be expressed with simple flags.
While at it, I took the opportunity to change the NIC drivers to pass up the error returned by mii_attach() (previously by mii_phy_probe()) and unify the error message used in this case where and as appropriate as mii_attach() actually can fail for a number of reasons, not just because of no PHY(s) being present at the expected address(es).

Implement RX interrupt moderation using one-shot timer interrupt. Unlike TX interrupt, ST201 does not provide any mechanism to suppress RX interrupts. ste(4) can generate more than 70k RX interrupts under heavy RX traffics such that these excessive interrupts make system useless to process other useful things. Maybe this was the major reason why polling support code was introduced to ste(4). The STE_COUNTDOWN register provides a programmable counter that will generate an interrupt upon its expiration. We program STE_DMACTL register to use 3.2us clock rate to drive the counter register. Whenever ste(4) serves RX interrupt, the driver rearm the timer to expire after STE_IM_RX_TIMER_DEFAULT time and disables further generation of RX interrupts. This trick seems to work well and ste(4) generates less than 8k RX interrupts even under 64 bytes UDP torture test. Combined with TX interrupts, the total number of interrupts are less than 10k which looks reasonable on heavily loaded controller.
The default RX interrupt moderation time is 150us. Users can change the value at any time with dev.ste.%d.int_rx_mod sysctl node. Setting it 0 effectively disables the RX interrupt moderation feature. Now we have both TX/RX interrupt moderation code so remove loop of interrupt handler which resulted in sub-optimal performance as well as more register accesses.

Reimplement miibus_statchg method. Don't rely on link state change interrupt. If we want to use link state change interrupt ste(4) should also implement auto-negotiation complete handler as well as various PHY access handling. Now link state change is handled by mii(4) polling so it will automatically update link state UP/DOWN events which in turn make ste(4) usable with lagg(4).
r199559 added a private timer to drive watchdog and the timer also used to drive MAC statistics update. Because the MAC statistics update is called whenever statistics counter reaches near-full, it drove watchdog timer too fast such that it caused false watchdog timeouts under heavy TX traffic conditions. Fix the regression by separating ste_stats_update() from driving watchdog timer and introduce a new function ste_tick() that handles periodic job such as driving watchdog, MAC statistics update and link state check etc. While I'm here clear armed watchdog timer in ste_stop().

Add bus_dma(9) and endianness support to ste(4). o Sorted includes and added missing header files. o Added basic endianness support. In theory ste(4) should work on any architectures. o Remove the use of contigmalloc(9), contigfree(9) and vtophys(9). o Added 8 byte alignment limitation of TX/RX descriptor. o Added 1 byte alignment requirement for TX/RX buffers. o ste(4) controllers does not support DAC. Limit DMA address space to be within 32bit address. o Added spare DMA map to gracefully recover from DMA map failure. o Removed dead code for checking STE_RXSTAT_DMADONE bit. The bit was already checked in each iteration of loop so it can't be true. o Added second argument count to ste_rxeof(). It is used to limit number of iterations done in RX handler. ATM polling is the only consumer. o Removed ste_rxeoc() which was added to address RX stuck issue (cvs rev 1.66). Unlike TX descriptors, ST201 supports chaining descriptors to form a ring for RX descriptors. If RX descriptor chaining is not supported it's possible for controller to stop receiving incoming frames once controller pass the end of RX descriptor which in turn requires driver post new RX descriptors to receive more frames. For TX descriptors which does not support chaning, we exactly do manual chaining in driver by concatenating new descriptors to the end of previous TX chain. Maybe the workaround was borrowed from other drivers that does not support RX descriptor chaining, which is not valid for ST201 controllers. I still have no idea how this address RX stuck issue and I can't reproduce the RX stuck issue on DFE-550TX controller. o Removed hw.ste_rxsyncs sysctl as the workaround was removed. o TX/RX side bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg(9) support. o Reimplemented optimized ste_encap(). o Simplified TX logic of ste_start_locked(). o Added comments for TFD/RFD requirements. o Increased number of RX descriptors to 128 from 64. 128 gave much better performance than 64 under high network loads.

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.

When user_frac in the polling subsystem is low it is going to busy the CPU for too long period than necessary. Additively, interfaces are kept polled (in the tick) even if no more packets are available. In order to avoid such situations a new generic mechanism can be implemented in proactive way, keeping track of the time spent on any packet and fragmenting the time for any tick, stopping the processing as soon as possible.
In order to implement such mechanism, the polling handler needs to change, returning the number of packets processed. While the intended logic is not part of this patch, the polling KPI is broken by this commit, adding an int return value and the new flag IFCAP_POLLING_NOCOUNT (which will signal that the return value is meaningless for the installed handler and checking should be skipped).
Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to signal such situation.
