MFC r227293 (by ed):
Mark MALLOC_DEFINEs static that have no corresponding MALLOC_DECLAREs.

This means that their use is restricted to a single C file.

MFC: r227309 (partial)

Mark all SYSCTL_NODEs static that have no corresponding SYSCTL_DECLs.

The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.

Add a missing check for the global ath_hal_debug.

This was removed accidentally when the per HAL instance
code was added, and not reverted when I added back the
global debug variable (for early chip setup debugging.)

Commit missing piece from a couple days ago - re-add ath_hal_debug.

Break out most of the HAL related tweaks into a per-HAL instance,
rather than global variables.

This specifically allows for debugging to be enabled per-NIC, rather
than globally.

Since the ath driver doesn't know about AH_DEBUG, and to keep the ABI
consistent regardless of whether AH_DEBUG is enabled or not, enable the
debug parameter always but only conditionally compile in the debug
methods if needed.

The ALQ support is currently still global pending some brainstorming.

Fix the debugging code path to correctly support HAL_DEBUG_UNMASKABLE.

Make the alq log path tunable

Fix a completely wrong variable reference.

Make the ar2133ForceBias() call controllable at runtime.

At least one AR5416 user has reported measurable throughput drops
with this option. For now, disable it and make it a run-time
twiddle. It won't take affect until the next radio programming
trip though (eg channel scan, channel change.)

Change HALDEBUG() to be a macro that conditionally calls the debug output routine.

The earlier way of doing debugging would evaluate the function parameters
before calling the HALDEBUG. In the case of detailed register debugging
would mean a -lot- of unneeded register IO and other stuff was going on.

This method evaluates the ath_hal_debug variable before the function
parameters are evaluated, drastically reducing the amount of overhead
enabling HAL debugging during compilation.

Revert previous commit and add myself to the list of people who should
know better than to commit with a cat in the area.

Add necessary include.

Fix AR5416 and later parts when building with AH_DEBUG or similar defined:
always define OS_REG_UNSWAPPED and use it in ath_hal_reg_{read,write}.

kill more portability functions that are no longer useful

kill unused OS_GETUPTIME

fix build w/ AH_DEBUG

Switch to ath hal source code. Note this removes the ath_hal
module; the ath module now brings in the hal support. Kernel
config files are almost backwards compatible; supplying

device ath_hal

gives you the same chip support that the binary hal did but you
must also include

options AH_SUPPORT_AR5416

to enable the extended format descriptors used by 11n parts.
It is now possible to control the chip support included in a
build by specifying exactly which chips are to be supported
in the config file; consult ath_hal(4) for information.

prepare for a new hal

Multi-bss (aka vap) support for 802.11 devices.

Note this includes changes to all drivers and moves some device firmware
loading to use firmware(9) and a separate module (e.g. ral). Also there
no longer are separate wlan_scan* modules; this functionality is now
bundled into the wlan module.

update copyrights to 2007 and convert to be 2-clause bsd-only

Remove unnecessary suser() check in the sysctl to set up ath_hal
logging: the sysctl framework will already have checked for privilege
if a sysctl value is being set.

Discussed a long time ago with: sam

o move ath hal os glue code from the hal to the driver: this code was
part of the hal distribution early on when the hal was built for
each os but it's been portable for a long time so move the os-specific
code out (and off the vendor branch)
o correct the copyright on ah_osdep.?; it was mistakenly given a
restricted license and not a dual-bsd/gpl license
o remove the module api definition as it was never used
o fixup include paths for move of ah_osdep.h
