options in existing config files so that they're more consistent. Add
more units of various pseudo-devices to several.
This is a bit of a hack, as-is, since there's a lot of code that's
outright duplicated between the various files and because it doesn't
support detection of a network device as the root device. The
latter's not a problem yet, because NetBSD/Alpha can't load the kernel
from the network to begin with.
(1) right now GENERIC can boot via NFS, and
(2) in the long run, GENERIC should autodetect network booting
and pick the correct root device.
Because of (1), GENERIC_NFS is no longer _needed_ in the short term.
Because of (2), GENERIC_NFS is not _wanted_ in the long term.

common back-ends that live on multiple very-different busses (e.g. PCI and
TC), which need bus-specific DMA mapping support. As a nice side effect,
this will allow the especially nasty (vtophys(va) | 0x40000000) expressions
to go away in favor of less nasty bus-specific function calls.
0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0x01 would be checksummed
incorrectly: rather than adding two 32-bit quantities together to
sum a quadword (which was losing a carry bit), add as four 16-bit
quantities.

called even if its bit is set in the interrupt register.
