the boot parameters from initarm first thing. parse_boot_param parses
the boot arguments and converts them to the /boot/loader metadata the
rest of the kernel uses. parse_boot_param is a weak alias to
fake_preload_metadata, which all the platforms use now, but may become
more extensive in the future.
Since it is a weak symbol, specific boards may define their own
parse_boot_param to interface to custom boot loaders.

- Move DMA tag and map creature to at91_spi_activate() where the other
resource allocation also lives. [1]
- Flesh out at91_spi_deactivate(). [1]
- Work around the "Software Reset must be Written Twice" erratum.
- For now, run the bus at the slowest speed possible in order to work
around data corruption on transit even seen with 9 MHz on ETHERNUT5
(15 MHz maximum) and AT45DB321D (20 MHz maximum). This also serves as
a poor man's work-around for the "NPCSx rises if no data data is to be
transmitted" erratum of RM9200. Being able to use the appropriate bus
speed would require:
1) Adding a proper work-around for the RM9200 bug consisting of taking
the chip select control away from the SPI peripheral and managing it
directly as a GPIO line.
2) Taking the maximum frequencies supported by the actual board and the
slave devices into account and basing the whole thing on the master
clock instead of hardcoding a divisor as previously done.
3) Fixing the above mentioned data corruption.
- KASSERT that TX/RX command and data sizes match on transfers.
- Introduce a mutex ensuring that only one child device is running a SPI
transfer at a time. [1]
- Add preliminary, #ifdef'ed out support for setting the chip select. [1]
- Use the RX instead of the TX commando size when setting up the RX side
of a transfer.
- For controllers having SPI_SR_TXEMPTY, i.e. !RM9200, also wait for the
completion of the TX part of transfers before stopping the whole thing
again.
- Use DEVMETHOD_END. [1]
- Use NULL instead of 0 for pointers. [1, partially]

in_cksum.h required ip.h to be included for struct ip. To be
able to use some general checksum functions like in_addword()
in a non-IPv4 context, limit the (also exported to user space)
IPv4 specific functions to the times, when the ip.h header is
present and IPVERSION is defined (to 4).
We should consider more general checksum (updating) functions
to also allow easier incremental checksum updates in the L3/4
stack and firewalls, as well as ponder further requirements by
certain NIC drivers needing slightly different pseudo values
in offloading cases. Thinking in terms of a better "library".
