    kernel - Fix rare IPIQ freezes
    
    * Ensure that an IPI interrupt is sent went waiting for an IPIQ
      to drain.  The IPIQ can be pushed up by passive IPIs and not
      necessarily have a signal pending on the target cpu, so we
      have to put the check in our drain loop rather than outside
      the loop.
    
    * Add a cpu_pause() to reduce power use for the IPIQ drain case.
    
    * Normalize the use of gd_intr_nesting_level and clean up the
      code syntax for the ipiq_optimized case.
    
    * Remove the previous temporary IPI interrupt signaling fix, it
      was incomplete.
    
    * Fix a missing crit_exit() in the ENOENT case for
      lwkt_send_ipiq3_nowait().
    
    * Track cpu's which are in the middle of ipiq processing and
      assert that a cpu is not in an IPIQ processing loop when
      switching between threads.
    
    * Normalize the use of ip->ip_npoll in the IPIQ code.  This
      field is used to avoid unnecessary IPI interrupts.
