Although the Keywest registers have only 1 byte of content, they are
secretly 4-byte registers, which became apparent from them moving on the
big-endian Uninorth version of the controller.
On Apple systems at least, all the level interrupts are wired active low.
Before this change, our PIC programming only worked because Apple hardware
ignores the interrupt polarity bit on all interrupts except IRQ 0.
This information can be very valuable for CPU sleep-time (and respectively
idle power consumption) optimization.
Add counters for timer-related IPIs.

New code that creates character devices shouldn't use device unit

this function more future proof by removing the unit number argument.

instead of 4-byte ones. Because the mouse pointer can start part way
through a character cell, 4-byte memory operations are not necessarily
aligned, triggering a fatal alignment exception when the console pointer
was moved on PowerPC G5 systems.

- Allow setting format, resolution and accuracy of BPF time stamps per
listener. Previously, we were only able to use microtime(9). Now we can
set various resolutions and accuracies with ioctl(2) BIOCSTSTAMP command.
Similarly, we can get the current resolution and accuracy with BIOCGTSTAMP
command. Document all supported options in bpf(4) and their uses.
- Introduce new time stamp 'struct bpf_ts' and header 'struct bpf_xhdr'.
The new time stamp has both 64-bit second and fractional parts. bpf_xhdr
has this time stamp instead of 'struct timeval' for bh_tstamp. The new
structures let us use bh_tstamp of same size on both 32-bit and 64-bit
platforms without adding additional shims for 32-bit binaries. On 64-bit
platforms, size of BPF header does not change compared to bpf_hdr as its
members are already all 64-bit long. On 32-bit platforms, the size may
increase by 8 bytes. For backward compatibility, struct bpf_hdr with
struct timeval is still the default header unless new time stamp format is
explicitly requested. However, the behaviour may change in the future and
all relevant code is wrapped around "#ifdef BURN_BRIDGES" for now.
- Add experimental support for tagging mbufs with time stamps from a lower
layer, e.g., device driver. Currently, mbuf_tags(9) is used to tag mbufs.
The time stamps must be uptime in 'struct bintime' format as binuptime(9)
and getbinuptime(9) do.

Expand the debugger hook, db_show_uma, to display these results as well.
This has proven to be very useful in out of memory situations when
it is not known why systems have become sluggish or fail in odd ways.

Although the sysctls are marked with CTLFLAG_RD and the values will stay
immutable, current sysctl implementation stores value pointer in
void* type, which means that const qualifier is discarded anyway
and some newer compilers complaint about that.
We can't use de-const trick in sysctl implementation, because in that
case we could miss an opposite situation where a const value is used
with CTLFLAG_RW sysctl.
