I've placed a new hal out for testing.  I'd like to commit it after more
folks work with it so feedback would be helpful.

There are numerous small bugs fixed in this version but the main change
is a split of the descriptor state so that s/w state can be placed in
cached memory when h/w state is in uncached memory.  This results in
noticeable performance gains on certain architectures.

To use this hal you must patch the driver and rate control modules with
this:

Not sure if the patch will apply cleanly to RELENG_6.
