actually go write the config page. This fixes the long standing
problem about updating NVRAM on Fibre Channel cards and seems
so far to not break SPI config page writes.

Put back role setting into mpt. That is, you can set a desired role
for mpt as a hint. On the next reboot, it'll pick that up and redo
the NVRAM settings appropriately and warn you that this won't take
effect until the next reboot. This saves people the step of having
to find a BIOS utilities disk to set target and/or initiator role
for the MPT cards.

There's something strange going on with async events. They seem
to be be treated differently for different Fusion implementations.
Some will really tell you when it's okay to free the request that
started them.  Some won't. Very disconcerting.

This is particularily bad when the chip (FC in this case) tells you
in the reply that it's not a continuation reply, which means you
can free the request that its associated with. However, if you do
that, I've found that additional async event replies come back for
that message context after you freed it. Very Bad Things Happen.

Put in a reply register debounce. Warn about out of range context
indices. Use more MPILIB defines where possible. Replace bzero with
memset. Add tons more KASSERTS. Do a *lot* more request free list
auditting and serial number usages. Get rid of the warning about
the short IOC Facts Reply.  Go back to 16 bits of context index.

Do a lot more target state auditting as well. Make a tag out
of not only the ioindex but the request index as well and worry
less about keeping a full serial number.

<title>Some fairly major changes to this driver.</title>

A) Fibre Channel Target Mode support mostly works
(SAS/SPI won't be too far behind). I'd say that
this probably works just about as well as isp(4)
does right now. Still, it and isp(4) and the whole
target mode stack need a bit of tightening.

B) The startup sequence has been changed so that
after all attaches are done, a set of enable functions
are called. The idea here is that the attaches do
whatever needs to be done *prior* to a port being
enabled and the enables do what need to be done for
enabling stuff for a port after it's been enabled.

This means that we also have events handled by their
proper handlers as we start up.

C) Conditional code that means that this driver goes
back all the way to RELENG_4 in terms of support.

D) Quite a lot of little nitty bug fixes- some discovered
by doing RELENG_4 support. We've been living under Giant
*waaaayyyyy* too long and it's made some of us (me) sloppy.

E) Some shutdown hook stuff that makes sure we don't blow
up during a reboot (like by the arrival of a new command
from an initiator).

There's been some testing and LINT checking, but not as
complete as would be liked. Regression testing with Fusion
RAID instances has not been possible. Caveat Emptor.

<title>Do initial cut of SAS HBA support. These controllers (106X) seem to support</title>

automatically both SATA and SAS drives.  The async SAS event handling we catch
but ignore at present (so automagic attach/detach isn't hooked up yet).

Do 64 bit PCI support- we can now work on systems with &gt; 4GB of memory.

Do large transfer support- we now can support up to reported chain depth, or
the length of our request area. We simply allocate additional request elements
when we would run out of room for chain lists.

Tested on Ultra320, FC and SAS controllers on AMD64 and i386 platforms.
There were no RAID cards available for me to regression test.

The error recovery for this driver still is pretty bad.
