* avoid writing past the end of the mbuf.
* m_getptr was introduced for the IPsec Crypto code. it must not be used here.

pointed out by maxv@. thanks.

add support for i.MX6UltraLite, and
ConnectCore for iMX6UL Starter Board.

Move bpf_mtap and if_ipackets++ on Rx of each driver to percpuq if_input

The benefits of the change are:
- We can reduce codes
- We can provide the same behavior between drivers
- Where/When if_ip

Move bpf_mtap and if_ipackets++ on Rx of each driver to percpuq if_input

The benefits of the change are:
- We can reduce codes
- We can provide the same behavior between drivers
- Where/When if_ipackets is counted up
- Note that some drivers still update packet statistics in their own
way (periodical update)
- Moved bpf_mtap run in softint
- This makes it easy to MP-ify bpf

Proposed on tech-kern and tech-net

MFREE -> m_free

fix the tx stall problem. ("watchdog timeout")
TX descriptor should be written out once before writing READY flag.

Introduce m_set_rcvif and m_reset_rcvif

The API is used to set (or reset) a received interface of a mbuf.
They are counterpart of m_get_rcvif, which will come in another
commit, hide internal of rcv

The API is used to set (or reset) a received interface of a mbuf.
They are counterpart of m_get_rcvif, which will come in another
commit, hide internal of rcvif operation, and reduce the diff of
the upcoming change.

Introduce softint-based if_input

This change intends to run the whole network stack in softint context
(or normal LWP), not hardware interrupt context. Note that the work is
still incomplete by this change; to that end, we also have to softint-ify
if_link_state_change (and bpf) which can still run in hardware interrupt.

This change softint-ifies at ifp->if_input that is called from
each device driver (and ieee80211_input) to ensure Layer 2 runs
in softint (e.g., ether_input and bridge_input). To this end,
we provide a framework (called percpuq) that utlizes softint(9)
and percpu ifqueues. With this patch, rxintr of most drivers just
queues received packets and schedules a softint, and the softint
dequeues packets and does rest packet processing.

To minimize changes to each driver, percpuq is allocated in struct
ifnet for now and that is initialized by default (in if_attach).
We probably have to move percpuq to softc of each driver, but it's
future work. At this point, only wm(4) has percpuq in its softc
as a reference implementation.

Additional information including performance numbers can be found
in the thread at tech-kern@ and tech-net@:

Fix memory leak (Brainy)

MD rnd.h cleanups. Please let me know if I broke anything!

- fix interrupt type ans interrupt masks
- change timing of callout_schedule because it doesn't schedule once enet_stop is called
- typo

add support i.MX6 and NITROGEN6X evaluation board
