As per [1] Intel only supports this driver on 64bit platforms.
For now restrict it to amd64. Other architectures might be
re-added later once tested.

Remove the drivers from the global NOTES and files files and move
them to the amd64 specifics.
Remove the drivers from the i386 modules build and only leave the
amd64 version.

Rather than depending on "inet" depend on "pci" and make sure that
ixl(4) and ixlv(4) can be compiled independently [2]. This also
allows the drivers to build properly on IPv4-only or IPv6-only
kernels.

lindev(4) was only used to provide /dev/full which is now a standard feature of

Document this in UPDATING and bump __FreeBSD_version. This will be documented
in the PH shortly.

Really, really, really only allow this option for amd64/i386 builds.

Merge head up to r263906.

In kernel config files, it is supposed to be 'options<space><tab>' not
