MFC: sync firmware(9) and iwi(4) with the version in HEAD (the changes
are related and this is why the MFC is done together).
In detail:

firmware(9):
  Cleanup and document the implementation of firmware(9) based on
  a version that i posted earlier on the -current mailing list,
  and subsequent feedback received. See the commit log
	luigi       2007-02-15 17:21:31 UTC
  The core of the change is just in sys/firmware.h and kern/subr_firmware.c,
  while other files are just adaptation of the clients to the ABI change
  (const-ification of some parameters and hiding of internal info,
  so this is fully compatible at the binary level).

  Note that in RELENG_6 sys/arm/xscale/ixp425, sys/dev/ipw and
  sys/dev/mxge do not exist or have not been updated to use firmware(9).

iwi(4)
  + add debugging code IWI_LOCK_CHECK() to print (under sysctl debug.iwi)
    missing locks;
  + make sure that iwi_ioctl() wait until the previous iwi_cmd() terminates.
