The 6205 (Taylor Peak) in the Lenovo X230 works fine in 5GHz 11a and 11n HT20,
but not 11n HT40. The NIC goes RX deaf the moment HT40 is configured.
It's so RX deaf that it doesn't even hear beacons and the firmware sends
"BEACON MISS" events. That's pretty deaf.
I tried configuring up the HT40 flags in monitor mode and it worked - so
I assumed that doing the transition from 20 -> 40MHz channel configuration
when going auth->assoc (ie, after the NIC has been partially configured)
is a problem.
So for now, let's just always set them if they're available.
Tested:
* Intel 5300, STA mode, 5GHz HT/40 AP; 2GHz HT/20 AP
* Intel 6205, STA mode, 5GHz HT/40, HT20, 11a AP; 2GHz HT/20 AP
This was pointed out to me by coworkers trying to use FreeBSD-HEAD
in the office on their Thinkpad T420p laptops.
TODO:
* I don't like how the HT40 flags are configured - the whole interop/
protection config should be re-checked. Notably, I think curhtprotmode
is 0 in a lot of cases, which means "no interoperability" and i think
that's busted.

As always, this isn't license for wholesale change, etc.
Some external tools just do a 'ls /dev/vmm' to figure out the bhyve virtual
machines on the host. These tools break if the devmem device nodes also
appear in /dev/vmm.

The /etc/ttys entry for a serial console in FreeBSD/x86 is as follows:
ttyu0 "/usr/libexec/getty 3wire" vt100 onifconsole secure
The initial terminal type passed to getty(8) is "3wire" which sets the
CLOCAL flag. However reset(1) clears this flag and any programs that try
to open the terminal will hang waiting for DCD to be asserted.
Fix this by always asserting DCD and DSR in the emulated uart.
The following discussion on virtualization@ has more details:

flags are not specified... This bug was introduced in r275732...
This only affects IPsec ESP only policies w/ the aesni module loaded,
other subsystems specify one or both of the flags...

pointer is NULL, as in that case there are no userland pages that
could potentially be wired. It is common for old to be NULL and
oldlenp to be non-NULL in calls to userland_sysctl(), as this is used
to probe for the length of a variable-length sysctl entry before
retrieving a value. Note that it is typical for such calls to be made
with an uninitialized value in *oldlenp, so sysctlmemlock was
essentially being acquired at random (depending on the uninitialized
value in *oldlenp being > PAGE_SIZE or not) for these calls prior to
this patch.

when used by bpfwrite() should be the same regardless of the state of
bd_hdrcmplt. Without this change, libpcap (and other BPF users that
work like it) fail when writing to loopback interfaces.

This obviates the need for a MNTK_SUSPENDABLE flag, since passthrough
filesystems like nullfs and unionfs no longer need to inherit this
information from their lower layer(s). This change also restores the
pre-r273336 behaviour of using the presence of a susp_clean VFS method to
request suspension support.
