a806c5feb1 make minix lwip make explicit use of 'int'
makes lwip use "unsigned int" instead of "unsigned" since this is
more obvious (i.e. type is not implied).

c51cd5fe91 Server/driver protocols: no longer allow third-party copies.
Before safecopies, the IO_ENDPT and DL_ENDPT message fields were needed
to know which actual process to copy data from/to, as that process may
not always be the caller. Now that we have full safecopy support, these
fields have become useless for that purpose: the owner of the grant is
*always* the caller. Allowing the caller to supply another endpoint is
in fact dangerous, because the callee may then end up using a grant
from a third party. One could call this a variant of the confused
deputy problem.

From now on, safecopy calls should always use the caller's endpoint as
grant owner. This fully obsoletes the DL_ENDPT field in the
inet/ethernet protocol. IO_ENDPT has other uses besides identifying the
grant owner though. This patch renames IO_ENDPT to USER_ENDPT, not only
because that is a more fitting name (it should never be used for I/O
after all), but also in order to intentionally break any old system
source code outside the base system. If this patch breaks your code,
fixing it is fairly simple:

- DL_ENDPT should be replaced with m_source;
- IO_ENDPT should be replaced with m_source when used for safecopies;
- IO_ENDPT should be replaced with USER_ENDPT for any other use, e.g.
  when setting REP_ENDPT, matching requests in CANCEL calls, getting
  DEV_SELECT flags, and retrieving of the real user process's endpoint
  in DEV_OPEN.

The changes in this patch are binary backward compatible.

b2c2dc72bc LWIP - Fix for dhcpd broadcast to work after boot
Dhcp only works if devices are configured with a broadcast source
address at the begining as it currently uses raw ip sockets and the
sockets sets the source address. It is a quick hack and proper hdcpd
fix is preferable
