MFC r249257:
Add support for getting and setting BBU properties related to battery
relearning. Specifically, add subcommands to mfiutil(8) which allow the

and add a subcommand which kicks off a battery relearn.

Switch to a 2-clause license.

# 225331 02-Sep-2011 jhb

# 220363 05-Apr-2011 jhb

Add the ability to manage the state of write caching when the battery
back-up is missing or dead. The current state of this field is reported
in 'mfiutil cache <volume>' and can be adjusted via
'mfiutil cache <volume> bad-bbu-write-cache <enable|disable>'. This
setting should generally be disabled to avoid data loss.

- Save errno values before calling warn(3) so that errors are correctly
reported.
- Use powerof2() from <sys/param.h> rather than a copy and paste version.

# 196200 13-Aug-2009 scottl

ntroduce mfiutil, a basic utility for managing LSI SAS-RAID & Dell PERC5/6
controllers. Controller, array, and drive status can be checked, basic
attributes can be changed, and arrays and spares can be created and deleted.
Controller firmware can also be flashed.

This does not replace MegaCLI, found in ports, as that is officially sanctioned
and supported by LSI and includes vastly more functionality. However, mfiutil
is open source and guaranteed to provide basic functionality, which can be
especially useful if you have a problem and can't get MegaCLI to work.
