    kernel - Attempt to fix i386 wire_count panic
    
    * Finally found what could be the issue.  get_pv_entry() calls zalloc()
      which can fall through to zget() which obtains a zalloc-related LWKT
      token.
    
      This can temporarily break the vm_token and allow another thread to get
      in and change the pmap pte entry out from under a pmap_enter(), causing
      the pmap_enter() to potentially remove an extra wire_count from the
      page table page.
    
    * Fix by pre-allocating the pv entry, taking it out of the critical path,
      and adjusting a few other bits of code to test the *pte closer to
      the code which replaces it for the purposes of adjusting the wire_count.
