    kernel - Fix mid-kernel-boot lockups due to module order
    
    * Sometimes the kernel would just lock up for no apparent reason.  Changing
      the preloaded module set (even randomly) could effect the behavior.
    
    * The problem turned out to be an issue with kernel modules needing to
      temporarily migrate to another cpu (such as when installing a SWI or
      other interrupt handler).  If the idle thread on cpu 0 had not yet
      bootstrapped, lwkt_switch_return() would not be called properly and
      the LWKT cpu migration code would never schedule on the target cpu.
    
    * Fix the problem by handling the idle thread bootstrap case for cpu 0
      properly in pc64.
