[neighbour] Return success when deferring a packet
Deferral of a packet for neighbour discovery is not really an error.
If we fail to discover a neighbour then the failure will eventually be
reported by the call to neighbour_destroy() when any outstanding I/O
buffers are discarded.
The current behaviour breaks PXE booting on FreeBSD, which seems to
treat the error return from PXENV_UDP_WRITE as a fatal error and so
never proceeds to poll PXENV_UDP_READ (and hence never allows iPXE to
receive the ARP reply and send the deferred UDP packet).
Change neighbour_tx() to return success when deferring a packet. This
fixes interoperability with FreeBSD and removes transient neighbour
cache misses from the "ifstat" error output, while leaving genuine
neighbour discovery failures visible via "ifstat" (once neighbour
discovery times out, or the interface is closed).

[intel] Fix operation when physical function has jumbo frames enabled
When jumbo frames are enabled, the Linux ixgbe physical function
driver will disable the virtual function's receive datapath by
default, and will enable it only if the virtual function negotiates
API version 1.1 (or higher) and explicitly selects an MTU.

[int13con] Add basic ability to log to a local disk via INT 13
Several popular public cloud providers do not provide any sensible
mechanism for obtaining debug output from an OS which is failing to
boot. For example, Amazon EC2 provides the "Get System Log" facility,
which occasionally deigns to report a random subset of the characters
emitted via the VM's serial port, but usually returns only a blank
screen. (Amazingly, this is still superior to the debugging
facilities provided by Azure.)
Work around these shortcomings by adding a console type which sends
output to a magically detected raw disk partition, and including such
a partition within any iPXE .usb-format image.
To use this facility:
- build an iPXE .usb image with CONSOLE_INT13 enabled
- boot the cloud VM from this image
- after the boot fails, attach the VM's boot disk to a second VM
- from this second VM, use "less -f -R /dev/sdb3" (or similar) to
view the iPXE output.

[intel] Allow for the use of advanced TX descriptors
Intel virtual function NICs almost work with the use of "legacy"
transmit and receive descriptors (which are backwards compatible right
back to the original Intel Gigabit NICs).
Unfortunately the "TX switching" feature (which allows for VM<->VM
traffic to be looped back within the NIC itself) does not work when a
legacy TX descriptor is used: the packet is instead sent onto the
wire.
Fix by allowing for the use of an "advanced" TX descriptor (containing
exactly the same information as is found in the "legacy" descriptor).

[usb] Always clear recorded disconnections after performing hotplug actions
The recorded disconnections (in port->disconnected) will currently be
left uncleared if usb_attached() returns an error (e.g. because there
are no drivers for a particular USB device). This is incorrect
behaviour: the disconnection has been handled and the record should be
cleared until the next physical disconnection is detected (via the CSC
bit).
The problem is masked for EHCI, UHCI, and USB hubs, since these will
report a changed port (via usb_port_changed()) only when the
underlying hardware reports a change. xHCI will call
usb_port_changed() in response to any port status event, at which
point the stale value of port->disconnected will be erroneously acted
upon. This can lead to an endless loop of repeatedly enumerating the
same device when a driverless device is attached to an xHCI root hub
port.
Fix by unconditionally clearing port->disconnected in usb_hotplugged().

[usb] Do not call usb_hotplug() when registering a new hub
The action of registering a new hub can itself happen in only two
ways: either a new USB hub has been created (in which case we are
already inside a call to usb_hotplug()), or a new root hub has been
created.
In the former case, we do not need to issue a further call to
usb_hotplug(), since the hub's ports will all be marked as changed and
so will be handled after the return from register_usb_hub() anyway.
Calling usb_hotplug() within register_usb_hub() leads to a confusing
order of events, such as:
- root hub port 1 detects a change
- root hub port 2 detects a change
- usb_hotplug() is called
- root hub port 1 finds a USB hub
- usb_hotplug() is called
- this inner call to usb_hotplug() handles root hub port 2
Fix by calling usb_hotplug() only from usb_step() and from
register_usb_bus(). This avoids recursive calls to usb_hotplug() and
ensures that devices are enumerated in the order of detection.

[usb] Maintain single lists of halted endpoints and changed ports
When an EHCI hotplug action results in the controller disowning the
port, it will result in a hotplug action on the corresponding UHCI or
OHCI controller. Allow such hotplug actions to be carried out as part
of the same call to usb_step() or usb_register_bus(), by maintaining a
single central list of changed ports.

The USB core will currently fail to detect disconnections if a new
device has attached by the time the port is examined in
usb_hotplug().
Fix by recording the fact that a disconnection has taken place
whenever the "connection status changed" (CSC) bit is observed to be
set. (Whether the change represents a disconnection or a
reconnection, it indicates that the port has experienced some time of
being disconnected.)
Note that the time at which a disconnection can be detected varies by
hub type. In particular: root hubs can observe the CSC bit when
polling, and so will record the disconnection before calling
usb_port_changed(), but USB hubs read the port status (and hence the
CSC bit) only during the call to hub_speed(), long after the call to
usb_port_changed().

[usb] Include setup packet within I/O buffer for message transfers
The USB API currently assumes that host controllers will have
immediate data buffer space available in which to store the setup
packet. This is true for xHCI, partially true for EHCI (which happens
to have 12 bytes of padding in each transfer descriptor due to
alignment requirements), and not true at all for UHCI.
Include the setup packet within the I/O buffer passed to the host
controller's message() method, thereby eliminating the requirement for
host controllers to provide immediate data buffers.

as in formatting the hex setting types.

in terms of the more generic hex_encode() and hex_decode(), and update
all callers to provide the additional buffer length parameter.

[efi] Use the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL as an entropy source if available
Entropy gathering via timer ticks is slow under UEFI (of the order of
20-30 seconds on some machines). Use the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL if

Note that some implementations (including EDK2) will fail if we
request fewer than 32 random bytes at a time, and that the RNG
protocol provides no guarantees about the amount of entropy provided
by a call to GetRNG(). We take the (hopefully pessimistic) view that
a 32-byte block returned by GetRNG() will contain at least the 1.3
bits of entropy claimed by min_entropy_per_sample().
