idle lwp, and some changes depending on it.
1. separate context switching and thread scheduling.
(cf. gmcgarry_ctxsw)
2. implement idle lwp.
3. clean up related MD/MI interfaces.
4. make scheduler(s) modular.
locators for uhub because a hub can't have sub-devices.
This might be sanity-checked eventually.
Same for ubt now after the change to device attachment.
int _bus_dmatag_subregion(bus_dma_tag_t tag,
bus_addr_t min_addr,
bus_addr_t max_addr,

void _bus_dmatag_destroy(bus_dma_tag_t tag)
that allow a (normally broken/limited) device to restrict the bus address
range it can talk to. this is used by bce(4) to limit DMA addresses to
1GB range, the maximum the chip can address.
all this is from Yorick Hardy <yhardy@uj.ac.za> with input from several
people on tech-kern.
XXX: bus_dma(9) needs an update still.
- finish implementing splraiseipl (and makeiplcookie).
http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2006/07/01/0000.html
- complete workqueue(9) and fix its ipl problem, which is reported
to cause audio skipping.
- fix netbt (at least compilation problems) for some ports.
- fix PR/33218.
version.
Add disk_blocksize(9) so that disk drivers can record the physical
block size of a disk if it is different to DEV_BSIZE. Right now this
simply initialises dk_blkshift and dk_byteshift according to the
supplied block size. This information is used in the MI version of
bounds_check_with_label().

XXX: should these decls be in <mips/intr.h> or <mips/locore.h>?
While here, remove "extern" keyword from function declarations.
from cpu_configure(9) to cpu_initclocks(9) on mips ports which use
mips3_clockintr.c:mips3_clockintr() (i.e. CPU INT5 clock) to avoid
hardclock(9) before softclock interrupt is initialized in initclocks().
This should be harmless because initclocks() is a part of configure()
in these days and there is no MI function which expects hardware
interrupts between cpu_configure(9) and cpu_initclocks(9).
Disccussed on tech-kern and port-mips.
- Add COMPAT_15 to all the kernel that had COMPAT_14, for the sake of coherency
- Remove the only occurences of #ifdef COMPAT_15 in the tree: for the ARM
ports, COMPAT_15 was always used in conjunction with EXEC_AOUT. Only EXEC_AOUT
matters here.

useful. The functions delay, cpu_initclocks, and setstatclcokrate have been
renamed to mips3_delay, mips3_initclocks, and mips3_setstatclockrate.
We provide weak aliases for the original names, so machdep code doesn't have
to provide wrapper routines. (Giving good performance.)
I've moved mips3_clockintr, mips3_initclocks, and mips3_setstatclockrate to
their own mips3_clockintr file, because some ports may not be able to use
these, and its senseless to carry that baggage.
support code, using the common MIPS 3 cp0 based interrupt code, adding
time counters, and using the generic TODR code.
Unfortunately, due to lack of hardware, I don't know for sure that any
of this works, though the same code in evbmips works. Commiting anyway,

This allows us to convert aucom to just another com attachment, and cleanup
some code in the com_arbus.c.
Additionally, we use a common com_cleanup routine rather than having a
zillion copies of it in the attachment points.
This has been tested on a number architectures, and it has been shown to get
close to comparable performance when COM_REGMAP is defined, and comparable
when it is not defined.
Approved by core@. Fixes PR port-evbmips/32362.

N.B. stf is a cloning device, so it still must be enabled by
"ifconfig stf0 create".
- use vmspace rather than proc or lwp where appropriate.
the latter is more natural to specify an address space.
(and less likely to be abused for random purposes.)
- fix a swdmover race.
now, so use that to provide the Ethernet address of the built-in Ethernet.
XXX Still a little ugly in the tlp driver, but fixing that would require
XXX reworking the SROM usage in a broader sense.
While here, do the P4032 DMA window hack in device_register() as well.
