not present" don't print any message but still return ENODEV.
Use this in cd driver to allow open of character raw partition even if
the drive is empty (older drives fails at LOAD_UNLOAD time, newer
ones fail at TEST_UNIT_READY time).
This is a completely rewritten scsipi_xfer execution engine, and the
associated changes to HBA drivers. Overview of changes & features:
- All xfers are queued in the mid-layer, rather than doing so in an
ad-hoc fashion in individual adapter drivers.
- Adapter/channel resource management in the mid-layer, avoids even trying
to start running an xfer if the adapter/channel doesn't have the resources.
- Better communication between the mid-layer and the adapters.
- Asynchronous event notification mechanism from adapter to mid-layer and
peripherals.
- Better peripheral queue management: freeze/thaw, sorted requeueing during
recovery, etc.
- Clean separation of peripherals, adapters, and adapter channels (no more
scsipi_link).
- Kernel thread for each scsipi_channel makes error recovery much easier
(no more dealing with interrupt context when recovering from an error).
- Mid-layer support for tagged queueing: commands can have the tag type
set explicitly, tag IDs are allocated in the mid-layer (thus eliminating
the need to use buggy tag ID allocation schemes in many adapter drivers).
- support for QUEUE FULL and CHECK CONDITION status in mid-layer; the command
will be requeued, or a REQUEST SENSE will be sent as appropriate.

the number of partitions is > OLDMAXPARTITIONS. This is better
than silently truncating the label (don't want to silently throw
away partitions when using an old disklabel binary on a label with
> 8 partitions). From Enami Tsugutomo.
it to determine the boot device: mvme68k, pc532, macppc, ofppc. Those
platforms should be changed to use device_register(). In the mean time,
those ports defined __BROKEN_DK_ESTABLISH.

XXX NOTE: We should do something to probe capabilities, rather than allowing
these ioctls on any device.
- `flags' is now gone, replaced with `xs_control' and `xs_status'.
- Massive cleanup of the control flags. Now we explicitly say that
a job is to complete asynchronously, rather than relying on side-effects,
and use a new flag to now that device discovery is being performed.
- Do SCSI device discovery interrupt-driven.
command (unlock for sd and cd) if no other partitions are open, return
EBUSY otherwise. DIOCEJECT will have the old semantic if its argument is not
0. The old ioctl has been renamed to ODIOCEJECT for binary compatibility.
in the drive. restrict "opening of empty drive" to character devices only
(reading a block device returns a short read instead of ENODEV, which can lead
to confusion).
-store printable product ID in cd's and sd's softc, use it as "typename"
-for this, add a "destination buffer length" argument to scsipi_strvis()
-return ATAPI device type for ATAPI devices
