FWIW, if I were dealing with a sane driver where nearly all routines had
the softc passed in, I would have made CSR_READ/WRITE take that softc. 
But since there were a number of functions that operate without a softc
(basically the console stuff), I decided it was better to create a
structure that had only the data in it needed for the console.
