SVN rev 189851 on 2009-03-15 14:21:05Z by rwatson
Remove IFF_NEEDSGIANT, a compatibility infrastructure introduced
in FreeBSD 5.x to allow network device drivers to run with Giant
despite the network stack being Giant-free. This significantly
simplifies calls into ioctl() on network interfaces, especially
in the multicast code, as well as eliminates deferred invocation
of interface if_start routines.
Disable the build on device drivers still depending on
IFF_NEEDSGIANT as they no longer compile. They will be removed
in a few weeks if they haven't been made MPSAFE in that time.
Disabled drivers:
if_ar
if_axe
if_aue
if_cdce
if_cue
if_kue
if_ray
if_rue
if_rum
if_sr
if_udav
if_ural
if_zyd
Drivers that were already disabled because of tty changes:
if_ppp
if_sl
