The flow-table associates TCP/UDP flows and IP destinations with
specific routes. When the routing table changes, for example,
when a new route with a more specific prefix is inserted into the
routing table, the flow-table is not updated to reflect that change.
As such existing connections cannot take advantage of the new path.
In some cases the path is broken. This patch will update the affected
flow-table entries when a more specific route is added. The route
entry is properly marked when a route is deleted from the table.
In this case, when the flow-table performs a search, the stale
entry is updated automatically. Therefore this patch is not
necessary for route deletion.

EHCI Hardware BUG workaround
The EHCI HW can use the qtd_next field instead of qtd_altnext when a short
packet is received. This contradicts what is stated in the EHCI datasheet.
Also the total-bytes field in the status field of the following TD gets
corrupted upon reception of a short packet! We work this around in software by
not queueing more than one job/TD at a time of up to 16Kbytes! The bug has been
seen on multiple INTEL based EHCI chips. Other vendors have not been tested
yet.
- Applications using /dev/usb/X.Y.Z, where Z is non-zero are affected, but not
applications using LibUSB v0.1, v1.2 and v2.0.
- Mass Storage (umass) is affected.

As a workaround, for Intel CPUs, do not use CLFLUSH in
pmap_invalidate_cache_range() when self-snoop is apparently not reported
in cpu features. We get a reserved trap when clflushing APIC registers

XEN in full system virtualization mode removes self-snoop from CPU

Split the 'video' ACPI lock up into two locks to resolve a LOR with the
sysctl lock. The 'video' lock now protects the 'bus' of video output
devices attached to a graphics adapter. It is used when iterating over
the list of outputs, etc. The 'video_output' lock is used to lock the
output-specific data similar to a driver lock for the individual video
outputs.

1) Restore the PCI Express control register after a watchdog
reset. This is required because the device will come out
of watchdog reset with the pectl reg at its default state,
and important BIOS configuration (like max payload size)
could be lost.
2) Call mxge_start_locked() for every tx queue before dropping
the lock in the watchdog handler. This is required, as
the queue's buf ring may have filled during the reset.
Correct a bug that could lead to a kernel panic if a user attempted to

For AR8132 fast ethernet controller, do not report 1000baseT
capability to mii(4). Even though AR8132 uses the same model/
revision number of F1 gigabit PHY, the PHY has no ability to
establish 1000baseT link. I have no idea why Atheros use the same
device/model id for this PHY.
With this change atphy(4) does not report 1000baseT media
capability and manual 1000baseT configuration is also disabled
which is more desirable behavior for 10/100Mbps PHY.

Temporarily disable the use of 1GB page mappings by the direct map. There
are currently two problems with the use of 1GB page mappings by the direct
map. First, at least one device driver uses pmap_extract() rather than
DMAP_TO_PHYS() to translate a direct map address to a physical address.
Unfortunately, neither pmap_extract() nor pmap_kextract() yet support 1GB
page mappings. Second, pmap_bootstrap() needs to interrogate the MTRRs to
ensure that a 1GB page mapping doesn't span two MTRRs of different types.

- F_READAHEAD: specify the amount for sequential access. The amount is
specified in bytes and is rounded up to nearest block size.
- F_RDAHEAD: Darwin compatible version that use 128KB as the sequential
access size.
A third argument of zero disables the read-ahead behavior.
Please note that the read-ahead amount is also constrainted by sysctl
variable, vfs.read_max, which may need to be raised in order to better
utilize this feature.
Thanks Igor Sysoev for proposing the feature and submitting the original
version, and kib@ for his valuable comments.
Use correct sizeof() object for klist 'list'. Currently, struct klist
contained only SLIST_HEAD as its member, thus sizeof(struct klist) would
equal to sizeof(struct klist *), so this change makes the code more
correct in terms of semantics, but should be a no-op to compiler at this
time.

- clean up USB detach logic. There seems to be some problems detaching multiple
USB HUBs connected in series from the root.
- after this patch the rule is:
1) Always use device_detach() on the USB HUB first.
2) Never just device_delete_child() on the USB HUB, because that function
will traverse to all the device leaves and free them first, and then the USB
stack will free the devices twice which doesn't work very well.
- make sure the did DMA delay gets set after the timeout has elapsed to make
logic more clear. There is no functional difference.

Add support for VT200-style mouse input.
Right now if applications want to use the mouse on the command line,
they use sysmouse(4) and install a signal handler in the kernel to
deliver signals when mouse events arrive. This conflicts with my plan to
change to TERM=xterm, so implement proper VT200-style mouse input.
Because mouse input is now streamed through the TTY, it means you can
now SSH to another system on the console and use the mouse there as
well. The disadvantage of the VT200 mouse protocol, is that it doesn't
seem to generate events when moving the cursor. Only when pressing and
releasing mouse buttons.
There are different protocols as well, but this one seems to be most
commonly supported.

Do not allow mmap with the MAP_FIXED argument to map at address zero.
This is done to make it harder to exploit kernel NULL pointer security

it does mitigate their impact.
Note that this may break some applications, most likely emulators or
