    kernel - Document vm_map_lookup_entry() better in vm/vm_map.c
    
    * Add some additional code documentation.
    
    * Issue a required cpu_ccfence() after a variable load when checking the
      vm_map_entry hint.  With the map locked shared the hint can still be
      updated concurrently even though the value, once loaded, will point to
      a stable structure.
