This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.

It looks to me like the 425e uses reverse polarity of the MCR_IEN bit with
respect to the other 4xx models. That could be because it doesn't have
an inverter wired behind the IEN(OUT2) output of the UART.
Fix is inspired by change in OpenBSD. Serial console input is
confirmed working on 425e by Thilo Manske.
indicating an unhandled "command". ERESTART is -1, which can lead to
confusion. ERESTART has been moved to -3 and EPASSTHROUGH has been
placed at -4. No ioctl code should now return -1 anywhere. The
ioctl() system call is now properly restartable.
by allowing the hardware drivers to register keyboard and display
support with the ite framework. Removes the dependence on the hil
keyboard and should make support for dnkbd easier.
An interim fix until wscons arrives.
