MFC r262613:
Merge the projects/clang-sparc64 branch back to head. This brings in several updates from the llvm and clang trunks to make the sparc64 backend fully functional.
Apart from one patch to sys/sparc64/include/pcpu.h which is still under discussion, this makes it possible to let clang fully build world and kernel for sparc64.
Any assistance with testing this on actual sparc64 hardware is greatly appreciated, as there will unavoidably be bugs left.
Many thanks go to Roman Divacky for his upstream work on getting the sparc64 backend into shape.
MFC r262985:
Repair a few minor mismerges from r262261 in the clang-sparc64 project branch. This is also to minimize differences with upstream.

Add eeprom(8), a utility to display and modify system configurations stored in EEPROM or NVRAM. It's inspired by the NetBSD eeprom(8) and the SunOS/Solaris eeprom(1M) utilities. Currently, this eeprom(8) only supports systems equipped with Open Firmware and is only tested on Sun machines but should work on any platform using Open Firmware. A bit more specific, eeprom(8) can be used on these systems to do the same under FreeBSD as can be done using the printenv and setenv commandos in the boot monitor. One thing that only hardly can be done using the boot monitor but easily with eeprom(8) is to write a logo to the "oem-logo" property. eeprom(8) may also be useful to recover the boot monitor password (in the default configuration only as root, of course), i.e. when the boot monitor allows you to boot but you can't alter the configuration because the password is unknown. The man page may also be a useful reference of the various configuration variables.
The idea of eeprom(8) is that handlers can be written to add support for any firmware that stores such configuration in EEPROM or NVRAM; sort of e.g. eeprom(1M) on Solaris/x86 is used to turn PAE-support on and off (stored in a file then, not hardware). In FreeBSD, a candidate for this would be a handler for the EFI boot environment for FreeBSD/ia64.
eeprom(8) uses some code from NetBSD (eeprom.c and the base for eeprom.8), the handler for the Open Firmware /options node (ofw_options.[c,h]) was written using ofw_util.[c,h] from ofwdump(8).
