sys/dev/arcmsr: Update Areca RAID driver to version 1.50.00.06.

- Suppressed a harmless warning message, "arcmsr_dr_handle: target=f,
lun=0, GONE!!!," which could appear a few seconds after UEFI system
boot due to the boot volume UEFI initialization.
- Corrected various typing errors.
- Refactored arcmsr_initialize() to improve code readability.
- Added support for device IDs 1883 and 1886 controllers.
- Introduced support for controllers requiring host memory for the
RAID 5 and 6 XOR engines.

Many thanks to Areca for continuing to support FreeBSD.

arcmsr: clean up empty lines in .c and .h files


# 9ea5bef2 29-Feb-2020 Warner Losh <imp@FreeBSD.org>

Remove support for varios versions from FreeBSD 4 to 8.

There's no way arcmsr will still work on those versions. Cleanup really old code
that's no longer needed.


# 718cf2cc 27-Nov-2017 Pedro F. Giffuni <pfg@FreeBSD.org>

sys/dev: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

# dc3a205b 05-Mar-2007 Scott Long <scottl@FreeBSD.org>

Better fix for the errors under high load. Returning CAM_SCSI_BUSY is almost
never correct as CAM has no real understanding of it, and will just immediately
retry the command. This leads to undesirable cycling of the camisr as well as
a high possibility for the command to exhaust its retries before the driver
can get around to servicing it.

The better fix, as demonstrated here, is to freeze the simq and mark the
command as needing to be tried. Then when driver can service the command,
the simq gets unfrozen. This is correct, and documented here to help reduce
the mystery. However, it also points out a shortcoming in CAM error handling
that makes writing drivers harder.
