MFC: r243857 (partial)

Mechanically substitute flags from historic mbuf allocator with malloc(9) flags in sys/dev.

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

Disable the inline assembly crc32 routine and use the C version instead.

The assembly version is reported to be broken on 5.x+. PR: kern/100425 Submitted by: Rashid N. Achilov shelton www.granch.ru MFC after: 1 week

Make sbni(4) MPSAFE:

- Add a mutex to the softc and use it to protect the softc and device hardware. - Setup interrupt handler after attaching device to network stack. - Use device_set_desc() rather than device_quiet() plus a manual printf that simulates the normal probe printf. - Axe next_sbni_unit and instead just leave room for two sbni devices for each bus attachment. - Don't bzero the already-zero'd softc. - Add a detach method to the PCI driver. - Add a lock to protect the list of available devices used to chain interrupt handlers for dual port ISA cards. - Remove unused watchdog routine. - If if_alloc() fails, make sbni_attach() return an error rather than panic'ing. - Consolidate code to free bus resources into sbni_release_resources(). - Clear IFF_DRV_RUNNING|OACTIVE in stop() routine instead of in callers. - Let ether_ioctl() handle SIOCSIFMTU.

Quiet framelen uninitialized warning. I think it was a false alarm.

If check_fhdr() returns false, the frame_ok variable should protect any meaningful evaluations of framelen. Approved by: re (rwatson)

- Store pointer to the link-level address right in "struct ifnet"

rather than in ifindex_table[]; all (except one) accesses are through ifp anyway. IF_LLADDR() works faster, and all (except one) ifaddr_byindex() users were converted to use ifp->if_addr. - Stop storing a (pointer to) Ethernet address in "struct arpcom", and drop the IFP2ENADDR() macro; all users have been converted to use IF_LLADDR() instead.
