    kernel - Introduce hard code sections, simplify critical sections & mplocks
    
    * Introduce hard code sections with crit_enter_hard(), crit_exit_hard(),
      lwkt_gettoken_hard() and lwkt_reltoken_hard().
    
      These functions create a hard code section that, like an interrupt or ipi,
      does not allow any case which might potentially block or switch threads.
      While in a hard code section any such case will assert and panic the
      system.
    
      For example, acquiring a token that is not already held would be disallowed
      even if the acquisition could be accomplished without blocking.  However,
      acquiring a token which is already held would be allowed.  Same with the
      mplock, lockmgr locks, etc. (mtx's and serializers have not been dealt
      with yet).
    
    * Introduce ASSERT_LWKT_TOKEN_HARD() and ASSERT_LWKT_TOKEN_CRIT().
    
      These assert that a token is held and a hard critical section (hard)
      or any critical section (crit) is in place.
    
    * Rework the critical section macros and optimize the crit_exit*() code
      to two conditionals which are usually always false regardless of
      whether critcount is transitioning 1->0 or not.  Also declare
      crit_panic() __dead2 which may produce better code.
    
    * Rework get_mplock() to reduce code generation.  The hard code section
      assertions would have made it too big.  We still optimize the case
      where the mplock is already held.
