H A Dpmap.cdiff 216960 Tue Jan 04 14:05:53 MST 2011 cperciva Add hamfisted locking to the Xen/PV pmap code: Only allow one thread to
be in {pmap_pinit, pmap_copy, pmap_release} at a time.

This reduces the rate of panics when running 'make index' from ~0.6/hour
to ~0.02/hour (p < 10^-30).

At a later date this locking will be removed, and for this reason, it is
wrapped in #ifdef HAMFISTED_LOCKING; this temporary hack is being put in
place with the intention of shipping somewhat-stable Xen bits in FreeBSD
8.2-RELEASE.
