keeping track of where the kernel lives in K0SEG. Place early data
structure allocation into an allocsys() function, like other ports, so
that it can be used to first calculate the amount of memory needed
for those data structures.

Use the defopt'ed options, rather than NDEC_... and remove the needs-flag
hack that's existed for a while.
- fix _C_LABEL so that it actually works.
- make __RENAME use _C_LABEL.
- fix __RENAME so that it expects an unquoted argument.
- fix __indr_reference and __warn_references so that they
supply their own final semicolon.
- define __warn_references to nothing if not GNU C (required
by the way it's used).
The __warn_references semicolon change has to be made
so that __warn_references can be defined into nothing.
(A ; all by itself isn't a great idea.) The __indr_reference
change was made for consistency.

o Add declaration to all architectures.
o Clean up copyright message in rnd.c, rnd.h, and rndpool.c to include
that this code is derived in part from Ted Tyso's linux code.
Only assembly version for i386 bswap16 and bswap32 for now (bswap64 uses
bswap32). Contribution of assembly versions of these are welcome.
Add byte-swapping of ext2fs metadata for big-endian systems.
Tested on i386 and sparc.
a function) which specifies how many lines will be skipped when scrolling
up when the bottom of the screen is reached. Dumb framebuffers skip 10
lines (as before) because the copies are s ... l ... o ... w, but it's
silly to skip 10 lines on VGA, since the copies are much faster, so we
only skip one in that case.

fixing this problem better later, but it works for now. Basically, if memory
is greater than 128MB, start upping the sizes of some maps.

though old 'dmesg' binaries will output a few bytes of junk at the start of
the buffer, and will miss a few bytes at the end of the buffer.

instructions will be used to implement non-swizzle bus access functions
on newer systems, such as the new AlphaStation 500s with EV56 and 21172
PCI chipsets.

* support chip clocks != COM_FREQ, by introducing sc_frequency (for the
mainline code) and adding a frequency parameter right after the rate
parameter to comcnattach() and com_kgdb_attach().
- Make com_isa and com_multi initialize sc_frequency to COM_FREQ.
- Make i386/machdep.c and alpha/dec_xxx.c call com*attach() with the freq.
parameter.
* supio_attach_args get two more fields: a sc_ipl and a sc_arg, both ints.
- com_supio uses the first for interupt establishment (all childs will, as
soon as they exist) and the 2nd for sc_frequency.
- drsupio passes sc_ipl alway as 5, and for the "com"s, sc_arg as 16*115200
- hyper will pass sc_ipl as 6, and sc_arg as 16 * 460800
- Fix a few bugs in the software single-stepping support code, where
VMS PALcode ops were being checked, rather than OSF/1 PALcode ops,
causing erroneous results in the "exception return" and "unconditional
branch" predicates.
- Add the BWX instructions ("ldbu", "ldwu", "stb", "stw") to the
"load" and "store" predicates.
