MFC x86emu/x86bios emulator and make previously i386 only dpms and vesa
framebuffer driver, etc. work on FreeBSD/amd64.

A significant amount of improvements were done by jkim@ during the recent
months to make vesa(4) work better, over the initial code import. This
work is based on OpenBSD's x86emu implementation and contributed by
paradox <ddkprog yahoo com> and swell.k at gmail com.

Hopefully I have stolen all their work to 8-STABLE :)

All bugs in this commit are mine, as usual.

MFC r197518:

lindev(4) [1] is supposed to be a collection of linux-specific pseudo
devices that we also support, just not by default (thus only LINT or

While currently there is only "/dev/full" [2], we are planning to see more
in the future. We may decide to change the module/dependency logic in the
future should the list grow too long.

This is not part of linux.ko as also non-linux binaries like kFreeBSD
userland or ports can make use of this as well.

amdsbwd: new driver for AMD SB600/SB7xx watchdog timer

The hardware is compliant with WDRT specification, so I originally
considered including generic WDRT watchdog support, but decided
against it, because I couldn't find anyone to the code for me.
WDRT seems to be not very popular.
Besides, generic WDRT porbably requires a slightly different driver
approach.

Build x86bios only for i386/amd64 for now. More work is required
to make these functional on other architectures, and the current
code breaks sparc64 and powerpc.

Automatically depend on x86emu when vesa or dpms is being built into
kernel. With this change the user no longer need to remember building
this option.
