ocassions, memory barriers semantic is not honoured by the hardware
itself. As a result, some random breakage can happen in uninvestigable
ways (for further explanation see at the content of the commit itself).
As long as just a specific familly is bugged of an entire architecture
is broken, a complete fix-up is impratical without harming to some
extents the other correct cases.
Considering that (and considering the frequency of the bug exposure)
just print out a warning message if the affected machine is identified.

Normally msgbufp is locked using Giant. Switch it to use the
msgbuf_lock. Instead of changing the tsleep() calls to msleep(), just
convert it to condvar(9).
In my opinion the locking around msgbuf_peekbytes() still remains
questionable. It looks like locks are dropped while performing copies of
multiple blocks to userspace, which may cause the msgbuf to be reset in
the mean time. At least getting it underneath from Giant should make it
a little easier for us to figure out how to solve that.

- VBE 3.0 says palette format resets to 6-bit mode when video mode changes.
We simply set 8-bit mode when we switch modes if the adapter supports it.
- VBE 3.0 also says if the mode is not VGA compatible, we must use VBE
function to save/restore palette. Otherwise, VGA function may be used.
Thus, reinstate the save/load palette functions only for non-VGA compatible
modes regardless of its palette format.
- Let vesa(4) set VESA modes even if vga(4) claims to support it.
- Reset default palette if VESA pixel mode is set initially.
- Fix more style nits.
- Tear down the interrupt handler before killing the worker thread.
- Do geom withering as GEOM event to avoid acquiring the GEOM topology
lock under Giant.

This improvements aims for avoiding further cache-misses in scheduler
specific functions which need to keep track of average thread running

prepared bytes and next portion of transfer, inner loop of kern_sendfile()
aborts, not preparing next mbuf for socket buffer, and not modifying
any outer loop invariants. The thread loops in the outer loop forever.
Instead of breaking from inner loop, prepare only bytes that fit into
the socket buffer space.

- Rework timeout handling, to make it more graceful for devices sharing
controller port (with PMP). Wait for other commands completion/timeout
before initiating recovery.
- Handle timeouts and fatal errors with port hard-reset. The rest of
recovery will be done by XPT on receiving async event. More gracefull
per-device soft-reset recovery can be implemented later.

- Add workaround for ATI SB600/SB700 PMP probe related bug, to speedup boot.
Right now sysctl just prints the major/minor numbers of a device.
Instead of rolling our own routine for this, we'd better just call
devname(3) to perform a translation to a device name for us.
disk is first probed. dagetcapacity is called whenever the disk is opened from

Most of the pieces came from Marius- correct settings for channels
and resource management. The one piece missing was that you cannot
for SBus cards replace 32 bit operations with A64 operations- not

reacquiring driver lock in Rx handler. re(4) drops a driver lock
before passing received frame to upper stack and reacquire the
lock. During the time window ioctl calls could be executed and if
the ioctl was interface down request, driver will stop the
controller and free allocated mbufs. After that when driver comes
back to Rx handler again it does not know what was happend so it
could access free mbufs which in turn cause panic.
