conf: Remove kernel stack swapping support, part 12

Remove the NO_SWAPPING option. There is still some code in
vm_swapout.c, but it relates to RACCT handling. Remove the option and
make compilation of vm_swapout.c conditional on RACCT.

Fix bogusly declared WERRORs in kernel build

Many arm kernel configs bogusly specified WERROR=-Werror. There's no
reason for this because the default is that and there's no reason to
override. These date from a time when we needed to add additional
warning->error suppression. They are obsolete and were cut and paste
propagated from file to file.

Comment out all the WERROR=.... lines in powerpc. They aren't bogus,
but were appropriate for the old defaults for gcc4.2.1. Now that we've
made the policy decision to suppress -Werror by default on these
platforms, it is appropriate to comment these out. People wishing to
fix these errors can still un-comment them out, or say WERROR=-Werror
on the command line.

Fix two instances (cut and paste propagation) of hard-coded -Werror
in x86 code. Replace with ${WERROR} instead. This is a no-op change
except for people who build WERROR=-Wno-error :).

This should fix tinderbox / CI breakage.

Merge MPC85XX and QorIQ config options

Summary:
MPC85XX and QorIQ are very similar. When the DPAA dTSEC driver was
added, QORIQ_DPAA was brought in as a config option to support the differences
in hardware register settings between QorIQ (e500mc-, e5500- based) SoCs and
QUICC (e500v1/e500v2-based) SoCs, particularly in the Local Access Window (LAW)
target settings.

Unify these settings using macros to hide details and ease porting, and use a
new function (mpc85xx_is_qoriq()) to distinguish between QorIQ and QUICC SoCs at
runtime.

An alternative to using the function could be to use a variable initialized at
platform attach time, which may incur less overhead at runtime. Since it's not
in the critical path once booted, this optimization doesn't seem necessary at
first pass.

Add support for the Freescale dTSEC DPAA-based ethernet controller.

Freescale's QorIQ line includes a new ethernet controller, based on their
Datapath Acceleration Architecture (DPAA). This uses a combination of a Frame
manager, Buffer manager, and Queue manager to improve performance across all
interfaces by being able to pass data directly between hardware acceleration
interfaces.

As part of this import, Freescale's Netcomm Software (ncsw) driver is imported.
This was an attempt by Freescale to create an OS-agnostic sub-driver for
managing the hardware, using shims to interface to the OS-specific APIs. This
work was abandoned, and Freescale's primary work is in the Linux driver (dual
BSD/GPL license). Hence, this was imported directly to sys/contrib, rather than
going through the vendor area. Going forward, FreeBSD-specific changes may be
made to the ncsw code, diverging from the upstream in potentially incompatible
ways. An alternative could be to import the Linux driver itself, using the
linuxKPI layer, as that would maintain parity with the vendor-maintained driver.
However, the Linux driver has not been evaluated for reliability yet, and may
have issues with the import, whereas the ncsw-based driver in this commit was
completed by Semihalf 4 years ago, and is very stable.

Other SoC modules based on DPAA, which could be added in the future:
* Security and Encryption engine (SEC4.x, SEC5.x)
* RAID engine

Additional work to be done:
* Implement polling mode
* Test vlan support
* Add support for the Pattern Matching Engine, which can do regular expression
matching on packets.

This driver has been tested on the P5020 QorIQ SoC. Others listed in the
dtsec(4) manual page are expected to work as the same DPAA engine is included in
all.
