WRAPPER macros for pre-DDI 8 drivers

WRAPPER macros for pre-DDI 8 drivers

Pre-DDI 8 loadable drivers must code a WRAPPER macro as part of the driver initialization that is done in the _load(D2) entry point routine.

The wrapper ``wraps'' a module's initialization and termination routines with special code that enables the kernel to logically connect and disconnect the module to and from the kernel ``on the fly'' while the system is running.

The wrapper consists of function definitions and initialized data structures.
