Another update:

* ICT interrupts for 5000/6000 series
* New firmware
* Initial support for 1000 series and initial bits for upcoming 6000  series 
(untested as hardware is not available to the general public)
* Many bug fixes, including workarounds for hardware bugs
* Addresses kern/140036

Most of this stuff has been obtained from OpeBSD. Testes/Feedback welcome!
