kernel - Fix signal delivery races
* The send side was using p->p_token but the processing code from trap
was still using the mp_lock. Fix the trap processing code to use
p->p_token.
* This fixes several nasty races that can cause signals to be lost and
vkernels to freeze, and possibly other programs which depend on signals
between threads.
