  Log:
  - Port nfe(4) from OpenBSD.
  - Use spare RX DMA map to recover from bus_dmamap_load_mbuf() failure in
    nfe_newbuf_sda().
  - In nfe_encap(), properly handle excessive fragmented frame with m_defrag(),
    instead of descard it.
  - Use additional serializer to protect jumbo buffer pool.
  - In nfe_enacp(), set NFE_TX_VALID for each segments after all segment
    are in place.  Otherwise TX engine will be confused and never generates
    TX interrupts, which triggers the unpleasant "watchdog timeout".

  - Add polling(4) support.  By: dillon@

  Thank Matthew Dillon (dillon@) for diagnosing and fixing the serious bug
  in TX path.
