The graphics device driver passes a "default attribute" for normal text
output to the wscons framework. If the emulation module needs more
attributes (for different "renditions") it can allocate them via a
callback.
For now, only the "sun" emulation makes use of it.
problem was. A collision between a select and reselect would leave TC
non-zero from the command-out DMA count, which could later be considered
a fatal condition, causing a reboot. The message for that error was
only displayed with DEBUG. Fixed by clearing TC on a reselect. The
non-zero TC detection won't occur in this case, so unconditionally
display the message if it occurs.
Workaround for another problem that resulted from an "Illegal Command"
status from the 53c94 which would get ignored and result in a timeout
(which also reboots the system). Added the missing check for the
illegal command status, and add the workaround of resending the "accept
message" command to the 53c94. Correct fix will be to determine why the
message wasn't sent in the first place. Abort if the resending the
command doesn't work.
Correctly detect a spurious interrupt and ignore it. This was taken
from a newer Mach driver, but did not get the check converted for the
design difference between the current NetBSD driver and the Mach driver.
it implemented under the label `shortcut:' and only use it in these
cases: (1) after successful re-relection, (2) after receiving command-complete
status, and (3) during message-in handshake.
for front-ends to override the allocation to avoid alignment
handling in their DMA engines. Note that that ncr53c9x_msgout()
can request a 1 byte DMA transfer that would be difficult to break up.
as console input. (Previously, it did always succeed.)

Make error messages cleaner and add some "#ifdef DEBUG" to reduce noise.
needs some testing, but it seems to produce sound. The driver was written
by me, but since I don't have the hardware the debugging and testing was
done by Andreas Gustafsson <gson@araneus.fi>, Chuck Cranor
<chuck@maria.wustl.edu>, and Phil Nelson <phil@cs.wwu.edu>. Thanks.
Cute buglet: you can end up with zero CCBs if there were no targets
seen by the adapter. Always leave a minimum so the adapter can
finish attaching- it may be there w/o targets for a reason.
