r357614 added CTLFLAG_NEEDGIANT to make it easier to find nodes that are
still not MPSAFE (or already are but aren’t properly marked).
Use it in preparation for a general review of all nodes.
This is non-functional change that adds annotations to SYSCTL_NODE and
SYSCTL_PROC nodes using one of the soon-to-be-required flags.
Mark all obvious cases as MPSAFE. All entries that haven't been marked
as MPSAFE before are by default marked as NEEDGIANT

Don't hold the scheduler lock while doing context switches. Instead we
unlock after selecting the new thread and switch within a spinlock
section leaving interrupts and preemption disabled to prevent local
concurrency. This means that mi_switch() is entered with the thread
locked but returns without. This dramatically simplifies scheduler
locking because we will not hold the schedlock while spinning on
blocked lock in switch.
This change has not been made to 4BSD but in principle it would be
more straightforward.

Eliminate recursion from most thread_lock consumers. Return from
sched_add() without the thread_lock held. This eliminates unnecessary
atomics and lock word loads as well as reducing the hold time for
scheduler locks. This will eventually allow for lockless remote adds.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
* Update message station (CMS) code, read queue ids from PCI header.
* Use interrupts to wakeup message handling threads on 3XX
* Update PIC code, read interrupt information from PCI header instead
of using fixed values.
* Update PCI interrupt handling for the PIC change.
* Update code for getting chip frequency, new code support XLP 3XX
* Misc style(9) fixes

* Update the hardware access register definitions and functions to bring
them in line with other Netlogic software.
* Update the platform bus to use PCI even for on-chip devices. Add a dummy
PCI driver to ignore on-chip devices which do not need driver.
* Provide memory and IRQ resource allocation code for on-chip devices
which cannot get it from PCI config.
* add support for on-chip PCI and USB interfaces.
* update conf files, enable pci and retain old MAXCPU until we can support
>32 cpus.

This patch adds support for the Netlogic XLP mips64 processors in
the common MIPS code. The changes are :
- Add CPU_NLM processor type
- Add cases for CPU_NLM, mostly were CPU_RMI is used.
- Update cache flush changes for CPU_NLM
- Add kernel build configuration files for xLP.
