descriptors that are still marked owned in #ifdef GEM_RINT_TIMEOUT
instead of #if 0 for convenience.
- Remove stale code and comment about relying on the preset XIF config.
- In case of a watchdog timeout call the init function instead of just
the start function so the chip is properly reset.
Merge from hme(4):
- Convert to use bus_dmamap_load_mbuf_sg() for loading RX buffers.
- Protect from a duplicate mbuf free panic in case the DMA engine hangs.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface
and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.
This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
device creation and configuration symantics.

Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.

- Fix compilation without GEM_DEBUG.
- Do not #define GEM_DEBUG by default; it adds overhead (due to bzero()ing
RX space) and is not needed any more, since the driver is quite stable
now.
- Fix watchdog timeouts when failing to load TX packets.
- Do not forcibly limit the number of descriptors used for a packet to
GEM_NTXSEGS, by passing this number to bus_dma_tag_create(). There is
no requirement for a limit any lower than the total number of
available descriptors, and the present limit caused network problems
due to mbuf chains requiring more descriptors.
GEM_NTXSEGS is still used to estimate the interrupt window size, for
which we just need an estimate.

network layer (ether).
- Don't abuse module names to facilitate ifconfig module loading;
such abuse isn't really needed. (And if we do need type information
associated with a module then we should make it explicit and not
use hacks.)
- Remove NetBSD-style or-ed together BUS_DMASYNC operations, in some
cases relaxing the (intended) syncing operation a bit.
- Stop pretending that that we can sync part of a dmamap: replace the
GEM_CDTXSYNC and GEM_CDRXSYNC macros with GEM_CDSYNC to sync the
complete control map, and combine syncs wherever possible to avoid
the overhead.
- Sync all maps before unloading them.
- Remove a few syncs which should be unnecessary.
- remove DPRINTF(), there is a CTR*() for any of them, and KTR is
far more useful to debug this driver.
- some cleanups; remove some unused code and definitions.
o don't strip the Ethernet header from inbound packets; pass packets
up the stack intact (required significant changes to some drivers)
o reference common definitions in net/ethernet.h (e.g. ETHER_ALIGN)
o track ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API changes
o track bpf changes (use BPF_TAP and BPF_MTAP)

o use if_input to pass packets "up"
o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctls
