aic7xxx: make target mode enable a device hint
Previously it was only possible to enable target mode for these drivers by rebuilding the kernel with AHC_TMODE_ENABLE or AHD_TMODE_ENABLE and a bitmask of which units to statically enable for target mode. There is no space-savings in the driver by not having AHC_TMODE_ENABLE set, so in addition to the compile time option lets also introduce some tunables: hint.ahc.<unit>.tmode_enable=0/1 hint.ahd.<unit>.tmode_enable=0/1 For compatibility the old behavior is retained, but it can be overridden with tunables Signed-off-by: HP van Braam <hp@tmm.cx> Reviewed by: imp, mav Pull Request: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/pull/1208
