(Translation: elminate bogus macros that hid 'returns' making it hard
to read and moved a block of code inline rather than at the end of the
fuction where it was effectively a 'gosub' kind of goto).

the old way was to store pcpu in a register, and get curthread from pcpu,
which is not very atomic, and led to issues if the thread was migrated
to another core between the time we got the pcpu address and the time we
got curthread.
Instead, we now store curthread where pcpu used to be store, and we
calculate the pcpu address based on the cpu id.
map a fraction of the pages that were fetched by vm_pager_get_pages() from
secondary storage. Now, we map them all in order to avoid future soft
faults. This effect is most evident when a memory-mapped file is accessed
sequentially. Previously, there were 6 soft faults for every hard fault.
Now, these soft faults are eliminated.

to check the status property in their probe routines.
Simplebus used to only instantiate its children whose status="okay"
but that was improper behavior, fixed in r261352. Now that it doesn't
check anymore and probes all its children; the children all have to
do the check because really only the children know how to properly
interpret their status property strings.
Right now all existing drivers only understand "okay" versus something-
that's-not-okay, so they all use the new ofw_bus_status_okay() helper.
process "status" properties of OF nodes.
I've avoided adding new KOBJ methods here so that we don't have to modify
every ofw_bus in the tree. Since 100% of implementations of ofw_bus use
only ofw_bus_gen_*(), it might be worth garbage-collecting the other
methods as well.
The sglist segment array has grown to a bit over 512 bytes (on
64-bit system) which is more than ideally should be put on the
stack. Instead allocate an appropriately sized sglist and hang
it off each Rx/Tx queue structure.
Bump the maximum number of Tx segments to 64 to make it unlikely
we'll have defragment an mbuf chain. Our previous count was
rounded up to this value since it is the next power of two, so
effective memory usage should not change.
Also only allocate the maximum number of Tx segments if TSO was
negotiated.
It turns out the version of gas we're using interprets the old '_all' mask
as 'fc' instead of 'fsxc'. That is, "all" doesn't really mean "all".
This was the cause of the "wrong-endian register restore" bug that's
been causing problems with some cortex-a9 chips. The 'endian' bit in the
spsr register would never get changed (it falls into the 'x' mask group)
and the first return-from-exception would fail if the chip had powered on
with garbage in the spsr register that included the big-endian bit. It's
unknown why this affected only certain cortex-a9 chips.
CAPABILITIES stuff required to make ssh work.
Hopefully, Book-E can eventually be added to GENERIC, which would avoid
this kind of issue with bitrot. That will require figuring out how to link
Book-E and AIM kernels at the same address, however...

While there, postpone initializing local curthread variable until
passed signal number is checked for validity.

get the Routerboard 800 up and running with the vendor device tree. This
does not implement some BERI-specific features (which hopefully won't be
necessary soon), so move the old code to mips/beri, with a higher attach
priority when built, until MIPS interrupt domain support is rearranged.
strings and include arbitrary information (IRQ line/domain/sense). When the
ofw_bus_map_intr() API was introduced, it assumed that, as on most systems,
these were either 1 cell, containing an interrupt line, or 2, containing
a line number plus a sense code. It turns out a non-negligible number of
ARM systems use 3 (or even 4!) cells for interrupts, so make this more
general.
