    kernel - Fix ps/thread-exit and other related ps races
    
    * Adjust sysctl_kern_proc()'s kernel thread scanning code to use a marker
      instead of depending on td remaining on its proper list.  Otherwise
      blocking conditions can rip td out from under us or move it to another
      cpu, potentially resulting in a crash or livelock.  Index the scan
      backwards to avoid live-locking continuous adds to the list.
    
    * Fix a potential race is the zombie removal code vs a ps, p->p_token was
      being released too early.
    
    * Adjust lwkt_exit() to wait for the thread's hold count to drop to zero
      so lwkt_hold() works as advertised.
