malloc(9) -> kmem(9)

in many device attach paths, allocate memory with M_WAITOK instead of M_NOWAIT
and remove code to handle failures that can no longer happen.

Rename min/max -> uimin/uimax for better honesty.

Rename min/max -> uimin/uimax for better honesty.

These functions are defined on unsigned int. The generic name
min/max should not silently truncate to 32 bits on 64-bit systems.
This is purely a name change -- no functional change intended.

HOWEVER! Some subsystems have

#define min(a, b) ((a) < (b) ? (a) : (b))
#define max(a, b) ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))

even though our standard name for that is MIN/MAX. Although these
may invite multiple evaluation bugs, these do _not_ cause integer
truncation.

To avoid `fixing' these cases, I first changed the name in libkern,
and then compile-tested every file where min/max occurred in order to
confirm that it failed -- and thus confirm that nothing shadowed
min/max -- before changing it.

I have left a handful of bootloaders that are too annoying to
compile-test, and some dead code:

cobalt ews4800mips hp300 hppa ia64 luna68k vax
acorn32/if_ie.c (not included in any kernels)
macppc/if_gm.c (superseded by gem(4))

It should be easy to fix the fallout once identified -- this way of
doing things fails safe, and the goal here, after all, is to _avoid_
silent integer truncations, not introduce them.

Maybe one day we can reintroduce min/max as type-generic things that
never silently truncate. But we should avoid doing that for a while,
so that existing code has a chance to be detected by the compiler for
conversion to uimin/uimax without changing the semantics until we can
properly audit it all. (Who knows, maybe in some cases integer
truncation is actually intended!)

#include <sys/cpu.h> or <mips/cpuregs.h> as needed

Add d_discard to all struct cdevsw instances I could find.

All have been set to "nodiscard"; some should get a real implementation.

Change (mostly mechanically) every cdevsw/bdevsw I can find to use
designated initializers.

I have not built every extant kernel so I have probably broken at
least one build; however I've also found

I have not built every extant kernel so I have probably broken at

cdevsw/bdevsw entries so even if so I think we come out ahead.

split device_t/softc for all remaining drivers.
replace "struct device *" with "device_t".
use device_xname(), device_unit(), etc.

Use humanize_number() instead of the buggy code that GCC 4.5 caught.
Compiles. Not tested.

#include <sys/bus.h> instead of <machine/bus.h>.

use device_lookup_private to get softc
