Note:
- I don't have any hardware docments for this device, so this driver might
have some odd descriptions guessed by results of try-and-errors.
(the only info I have is the Linux driver, but I think it doesn't describe
the hardware specifications very well anyway)
- All RX packets and most TX packets are copied from/to buffers in the driver
due to hardware restriction, so performance is not so good for now.
Maybe RX packets can be directly DMA'ed to mbufs by the same method used
of fxp(4), but the hardware seems to require 4kbyte aligned RX buffers.
- Multicast filter setup function is not tested yet (no info).
- Currently only tested on R5000 O2 with disabled L2 cache, so needs
more tests on other CPU (i.e. RM5200/R10000/R12000) models.
- Currently BUS_DMA_COHERENT is not used for the device control data DMA
to avoid performance issue on memcpy() against RX buffers, but it might be
problematic when L2 cache is enabled or on R10000 models.
same interrupt, and something isn't quite right with the mace interrupt
dispatcher. Disable for now.

to only call pckbc_machdep_cnattach() if this is present. This allows
pckbc_machdep_cnattach() to be omitted entirely on most ports, where it only
returns ENXIO anyway.
The devices with this attribute at the moment are pc(4) on i386 and bebox, and
pckbc on sparc, where pckbc_machdep_cnattach() mysteriously returns 0 rather
than ENXIO.
* lpt device is defined in MI place (dev/ppbus/files.ppbus), dev/ic/lpt.c
is included there too; dev/ic/lpt.c is not included if ppbus is
configured or if there is alternative platform lpt (like for pc532)
* g/c MD lpt definitions and custom puc/upc attachments,
glue moved to conf/files and dev/pci/files.pci respectively; remove
device lpt definition from dev/isa/files.isa
* add ppbus parport attribute, atppc device attachments, adjust plip and lpt
glue
mace devices to their own mace/ directory. Alter conf/files.sgimips to
reflect this change in a sane manner (i.e., pull in dev/files.dev and
mace/files.mace when appropriate).
At the same time, allow crime_intr_establish() to fall through to
mace_intr_establish(). mace devices now call cpu_intr_establish().
