determine if the interface had been assigned an IP address.
This code prevented the interface from receiving ethernet
broadcasts if it had no IP address assigned, and appeared
to be an optimization that is not completely needed.
Add support for LKM operation.
Change M_NOWAIT on buffer memory allocation to M_WAIT in hopes we'll be
able to get ourselves a nice fat buffer from the kernel if we suspend.
Note: The LKM support looks kinda screwy in two areas, where I found
problems with the kernel proper. First, calling dev_attach()
at module load time will cause a panic. I haven't investigated.
Secondly, I had to manually call qcam_drvinit() to register the
device softc structure by hand at module load time. This seems
bogus, it should be called as a core part of the module load
process for character/block device drivers.
1. Create 2 x 8k transmit buffer blocks in place of the 16k block previously.
With this change the speed as tested with ttcp on a 2Mbit link went up
from 206kbyte/s to 236kbyte/s.
2. Change the rest of the functions to also have the definition of the
return value on a sepperate line.
3. Remove some unused variables.
4. Add code to recover from DMA underruns.
5. Reorder ar_get_packets() to handle errors better.
6. Only allocate a mbuf cluster if the data is more than the mbuf.
(and in a second diff in addition to the above)
7. Stops the occasional DMA underruns that occurred when 2 channels
are running at 2Mbit/s.

- split driver into FreeBSD specific and camera specific portions
(qcamio.c can run in user mode, with a Linux "driver top" etc,
and qcam.c should be trivial to port to NetBSD and BSDI.)
- support for 4bppand bidirectional transfers working better
- start of interleaved data-transfers byte-stream decodes (some of this
stuff has been pulled out for the moment to make it easier to debug)
At this point, anyone who wants to port it to other platforms should feel
free to do so. Please feed changes directly back to me so that I can produce
a unified distribution.

prevent it from conflicting with other drivers (like the aic7xxx driver).
Most of the work was in spliting out common portions of the driver and
making them generic enough to be called from the eisaconf probe.
- Clean up the access to our ifnet structure by caching a pointer
to it instead of always digging through our softc structure.

- fill in and use ifp->if_softc
- use if_bpf rather than private cookie variables
- change bpf interface to take advantage of this
- call ether_ifattach() directly from Ethernet drivers
- delete kludge in if_attach() that did this indirectly
for me, but has gotten a bit flakey in bidirectional parallel port mode.
Fix a bug in bidirectional parallel port transfers, more work is still
needed here (testers welcome).
Minor cleanup.

programs shouldn't get in the way.
This cleans up some really ugly grots that I hated too. :-)
