Temporarily revert the new-bus locking for 8.0 release. It will be
reintroduced after HEAD is reopened for commits by re@.

Approved by: re (kib), attilio

Make the newbus subsystem Giant free by adding the new newbus sxlock.
The newbus lock is responsible for protecting newbus internIal structures,
device states and devclass flags. It is necessary to hold it when all
such datas are accessed. For the other operations, softc locking should
ensure enough protection to avoid races.

Newbus lock is automatically held when virtual operations on the device
and bus are invoked when loading the driver or when the suspend/resume
take place. For other 'spourious' operations trying to access/modify
the newbus topology, newbus lock needs to be automatically acquired and
dropped.

For the moment Giant is also acquired in some key point (modules subsystem)
in order to avoid problems before the 8.0 release as module handlers could
make assumptions about it. This Giant locking should go just after
the release happens.

Please keep in mind that the public interface can be expanded in order
to provide more support, if there are really necessities at some point
and also some bugs could arise as long as the patch needs a bit of
further testing.

Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to reflect the newbus lock introduction.

Some minor style changes:
o Convert K&R function definitions to ANSI
o Eliminate spaces/tabs that should have been deleted as part of the de__P
efforts
o Use struct thread * in preference to d_thread_t *.

Replace all calls to minor() with dev2unit().

After I removed all the unit2minor()/minor2unit() calls from the kernel
yesterday, I realised calling minor() everywhere is quite confusing.
Character devices now only have the ability to store a unit number, not
a minor number. Remove the confusion by using dev2unit() everywhere.

This commit could also be considered as a bug fix. A lot of drivers call
minor(), while they should actually be calling dev2unit(). In -CURRENT
this isn't a problem, but it turns out we never had any problem reports
related to that issue in the past. I suspect not many people connect
more than 256 pieces of the same hardware.

Device megapatch 4/6:

Introduce d_version field in struct cdevsw, this must always be
initialized to D_VERSION.

Flip sense of D_NOGIANT flag to D_NEEDGIANT, this involves removing
four D_NOGIANT flags and adding 145 D_NEEDGIANT flags.

Device megapatch 1/6:

Free approx 86 major numbers with a mostly automatically generated patch.

A number of strategic drivers have been left behind by caution, and a few
because they still (ab)use their major number.

The present defaults for the open and close for device drivers which
provide no methods does not make any sense, and is not used by any
driver.

It is a pretty hard to come up with even a theoretical concept of
a device driver which would always fail open and close with ENODEV.

Change the defaults to be nullopen() and nullclose() which simply
does nothing.

Remove explicit initializations to these from the drivers which
already used them.

Despite my best efforts the Linux way of doing this is the only
way that works correctly.

- Remove unused function.
- Move declaration of variables to .S file.

Use __FBSDID().

Correct a mis-merge.

- Use null{open,close}() instead of rolling our own.

Initialize struct cdevsw using C99 sparse initializtion and remove

This patch is automatically generated and has been tested by compiling
LINT with all the fields in struct cdevsw in reverse order on alpha,
sparc64 and i386.
