    kernel - Fix localhost packet misordering
    
    * netisr thread ports are based on IPIs, but when we enable asynch socket
      writes a user thread which gets moved between cpus sending async netmsgs
      while doing so can result in the netisr receiving those messages out
      of order, corrupting the data stream.
    
    * Add TDF_FORCE_SPINPORT to allow the netisr threads to implement their
      message ports as spinports instead of threadports, which guarantees
      message ordering.
