    kernel - Fix vmspace termination race
    
    * Fix a SMP race which can cause a vmspace structure to be double-freed
      to its objcache, resulting in corruption.
    
    * Typical panic was a kernel seg fault at 'vm_copyin+2'.  What was in fact
      happening was that corruption of the vmspace was racing against reuse and
      a decrement of the pmap copyin function pointer.  This decrement caused
      function calls through the pointer to get very confused.
