Add new tunable 'net.link.ifqmaxlen' to set default send interface

queue length. The default value for this parameter is 50, which is quite low for many of today's uses and the only way to modify this parameter right now is to edit if_var.h file. Also add read-only sysctl with the same name, so that it's possible to retrieve the current value. MFC after: 1 month

Always use a private timer instead of if_watchdog and if_timer to drive

the transmit watchdog. These drivers already used a private timer when compiled to use Netgraph. This change just makes them always use the private timer. Note that these drivers do not compile and are disconnected from the build due to TTY changes.

Use new spelling of the NG_*LEN constants.

stack with conditional Giant acquisition, and IFF_NEEDSGIANT will be removed in the near future.

Replace all calls to minor() with dev2unit().

2008-09-27T08:51:18Z

After I removed all the unit2minor()/minor2unit() calls from the kernel yesterday, I realised calling minor() everywhere is quite confusing. Character devices now only have the ability to store a unit number, not a minor number. Remove the confusion by using dev2unit() everywhere. This commit could also be considered as a bug fix. A lot of drivers call minor(), while they should actually be calling dev2unit(). In -CURRENT this isn't a problem, but it turns out we never had any problem reports related to that issue in the past. I suspect not many people connect more than 256 pieces of the same hardware. Reviewed by: kib

Do not set IFF_DEBUG directly from the driver.
