Prevent overflow issues in timeout processing
Previously, any timeout value for which (timeout * hz) will overflow the signed integer, will give weird results, since callout(9) routines will convert negative values of ticks to '1'. For unsigned integer overflow we will get sufficiently smaller timeout values than expected.
Switch from callout_reset, which requires conversion to int based ticks to callout_reset_sbt to avoid this.
Also correct isci to correctly resolve ccb timeout.
This was based on the original work done by Eygene Ryabinkin <rea@freebsd.org> back in 5 Aug 2011 which used a macro to help avoid the overlow.

Reform the busdma API so that new types may be added without modifying every architecture's busdma_machdep.c. It is done by unifying the bus_dmamap_load_buffer() routines so that they may be called from MI code. The MD busdma is then given a chance to do any final processing in the complete() callback.
The cam changes unify the bus_dmamap_load* handling in cam drivers.
The arm and mips implementations are updated to track virtual addresses for sync(). Previously this was done in a type specific way. Now it is done in a generic way by recording the list of virtuals in the map.

MFp4: Large set of CAM inprovements.
- Unify bus reset/probe sequence. Whenever bus attached at boot or later, CAM will automatically reset and scan it. It allows to remove duplicate code from many drivers. - Any bus, attached before CAM completed it's boot-time initialization, will equally join to the process, delaying boot if needed. - New kern.cam.boot_delay loader tunable should help controllers that are still unable to register their buses in time (such as slow USB/ PCCard/ CardBus devices), by adding one more event to wait on boot. - To allow synchronization between different CAM levels, concept of requests priorities was extended. Priorities now split between several "run levels". Device can be freezed at specified level, allowing higher priority requests to pass. For example, no payload requests allowed, until PMP driver enable port. ATA XPT negotiate transfer parameters, periph driver configure caching and so on. - Frozen requests are no more counted by request allocation scheduler. It fixes deadlocks, when frozen low priority payload requests occupying slots, required by higher levels to manage theit execution. - Two last changes were holding proper ATA reinitialization and error recovery implementation. Now it is done: SATA controllers and Port Multipliers now implement automatic hot-plug and should correctly recover from timeouts and bus resets. - Improve SCSI error recovery for devices on buses without automatic sense reporting, such as ATAPI or USB. For example, it allows CAM to wait, while CD drive loads disk, instead of immediately return error status. - Decapitalize diagnostic messages and make them more readable and sensible. - Teach PMP driver to limit maximum speed on fan-out ports. - Make boot wait for PMP scan completes, and make rescan more reliable. - Fix pass driver, to return CCB to user level in case of error. - Increase number of retries in cd driver, as device may return several UAs.

Separate the parallel scsi knowledge out of the core of the XPT, and modularize it so that new transports can be created.
Add a transport for SATA
Add a periph+protocol layer for ATA
Add a driver for AHCI-compliant hardware.
Add a maxio field to CAM so that drivers can advertise their max I/O capability. Modify various drivers so that they are insulated from the value of MAXPHYS.
The new ATA/SATA code supports AHCI-compliant hardware, and will override the classic ATA driver if it is loaded as a module at boot time or compiled into the kernel. The stack now support NCQ (tagged queueing) for increased performance on modern SATA drives. It also supports port multipliers.
ATA drives are accessed via 'ada' device nodes. ATAPI drives are accessed via 'cd' device nodes. They can all be enumerated and manipulated via camcontrol, just like SCSI drives. SCSI commands are not translated to their ATA equivalents; ATA native commands are used throughout the entire stack, including camcontrol. See the camcontrol manpage for further details. Testing this code may require that you update your fstab, and possibly modify your BIOS to enable AHCI functionality, if available.
This code is very experimental at the moment. The userland ABI/API has changed, so applications will need to be recompiled. It may change further in the near future. The 'ada' device name may also change as more infrastructure is completed in this project. The goal is to eventually put all CAM busses and devices until newbus, allowing for interesting topology and management options.
Few functional changes will be seen with existing SCSI/SAS/FC drivers, though the userland ABI has still changed. In the future, transports specific modules for SAS and FC may appear in order to better support the topologies and capabilities of these technologies.
The modularization of CAM and the addition of the ATA/SATA modules is meant to break CAM out of the mold of being specific to SCSI, letting it grow to be a framework for arbitrary transports and protocols. It also allows drivers to be written to support discrete hardware without jeopardizing the stability of non-related hardware. While only an AHCI driver is provided now, a Silicon Image driver is also in the works. Drivers for ICH1-4, ICH5-6, PIIX, classic IDE, and any other hardware is possible and encouraged. Help with new transports is also encouraged.

Remove Giant from CAM. Drivers (SIMs) now register a mutex that CAM will use to synchornize and protect all data objects that are used for that SIM. Drivers that are not yet MPSAFE register Giant and operate as usual. RIght now, no drivers are MPSAFE, though a few will be changed in the coming week as this work settles down.
The driver API has changed, so all CAM drivers will need to be recompiled. The userland API has not changed, so tools like camcontrol do not need to be recompiled.

The first of 3 major steps to move the CAM layer forward to using the CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE that has been in the tree for some years now.
This first step consists solely of adding to or correcting CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE pieces in the kernel source tree such that a both a GENERIC (at least on i386) and a LINT build with CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE as an option will compile correctly and run (at least with some the h/w I have).
After a short settle time, the other pieces (making CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE the default and updating libcam and camcontrol) will be brought in.
This will be an incompatible change in that the size of structures related to XPT_PATH_INQ and XPT_{GET,SET}_TRAN_SETTINGS change in both size and content. However, basic system operation and basic system utilities work well enough with this change.

Mega busdma API commit.
Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg. Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred. Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please let me know right away.

Merge common XPT_CALC_GEOMETRY functions into a single convenience function. Devices below may experience a change in geometry.
* Due to a bug, aic(4) never used extended geometry. Changes all drives >1G to now use extended translation. * sbp(4) drives exactly 1 GB in size now no longer use extended geometry. * umass(4) drives exactly 1 GB in size now no longer use extended geometry.
For all other controllers in this commit, this should be a no-op.
