Conditionally move initial vfs bio alloc above 4G
On machines with just the wrong amount of physical memory (enough to
have a lot of bufs, but not enough to use VM_FREELIST_DMA32) it is
possible for 32-bit address limited devices to have little to no
memory left when attaching, due to potentially large vfs bio configs
consuming all memory below 4GB not protected by VM_FREELIST_ISADMA.
This causes the 32-bit devices to allocate from VM_FREELIST_ISADMA,
leaving that freelist emtpy when ISA devices need DMAable memory.
Rather than decrease VM_DMA32_NPAGES_THRESHOLD, use the time honored
technique of putting initially allocated kernel data structs
at the end (or at least not the beginning) of memory.
Since this allocation is done at boot and is wired, is not freed,
so the system is low on 32-bit (and ISA) dma'ble memory forever.
So it is a good candidate to move above 4GB.
While here, remove an unneeded round_page() from kmem_malloc's size
argument as suggested by alc. The first thing kmem_malloc() does
is a round_page(size), so there is no need to do it before the call.

libc arc4_stir: use only kern.arandom sysctl
The sysctl cannot fail. If it does fail on some FreeBSD derivative or
after some future change, just abort() so that the problem will be found
and fixed.
It's preferable to provide an arc4random() function that cannot fail and
cannot return poor quality random data. While abort() is not normally
suitable for a library, it makes sense here.

net80211: ieee80211_ratectl*: switch to reusable KPI
Replace various void * / int argument combinations with common structures:
- ieee80211_ratectl_tx_status for *_tx_complete();
- ieee80211_ratectl_tx_stats for *_tx_update();
While here, improve amrr_tx_update() for a bit:
1. In case, if receiver is not known (typical for Ralink USB drivers),
refresh Tx rate for all nodes on the interface.
2. There was a misuse:
- otus(4) sends non-decreasing counters (as originally intended);
- but ural(4), rum(4) and run(4) are using 'read & clear' registers
to obtain statistics for some period of time (and those 'last period'
values are used as arguments for tx_update()). If arguments are not big
enough, they are just discarded after the next call.
Fix: move counting into *_tx_update()
(now otus(4) will zero out all node counters after every tx_update() call)
Tested with:
- Intel 3945BG (wpi(4)), STA mode.

Add GARP retransmit capability
A single gratuitous ARP (GARP) is always transmitted when an IPv4
address is added to an interface, and that is usually sufficient.
However, in some circumstances, such as when a shared address is
passed between cluster nodes, this single GARP may occasionally be
dropped or lost. This can lead to neighbors on the network link
working with a stale ARP cache and sending packets destined for
that address to the node that previously owned the address, which
may not respond.
To avoid this situation, GARP retransmissions can be enabled by setting
the net.link.ether.inet.garp_rexmit_count sysctl to a value greater
than zero. The setting represents the maximum number of retransmissions.
The interval between retransmissions is calculated using an exponential
backoff algorithm, doubling each time, so the retransmission intervals
are: {1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...} (seconds).
Due to the exponential backoff algorithm used for the interval
between GARP retransmissions, the maximum number of retransmissions
is limited to 16 for sanity. This limit corresponds to a maximum
interval between retransmissions of 2^16 seconds ~= 18 hours.
Increasing this limit is possible, but sending out GARPs spaced
days apart would be of little use.
