    kernel - Refactor the vmspace locking code and several use cases
    
    * Reorder the vnode ref/rele sequence in the exec path so p_textvp is
      left in a more valid state while being initialized.
    
    * Removing the vm_exitingcnt test in exec_new_vmspace().  Release
      various resources unconditionally on the last exiting thread regardless
      of the state of exitingcnt.  This just moves some of the resource
      releases out of the wait*() system call path and back into the exit*()
      path.
    
    * Implement a hold/drop mechanic for vmspaces and use them in procfs_rwmem(),
      vmspace_anonymous_count(), and vmspace_swap_count(), and various other
      places.
    
      This does a better job protecting the vmspace from deletion while various
      unrelated third parties might be trying to access it.
    
    * Implement vmspace_free() for other code to call instead of them trying
      to call sysref_put() directly.  Interlock with a vmspace_hold() so
      final termination processing always keys off the vm_holdcount.
    
    * Implement vm_object_allocate_hold() and use it in a few places in order
      to allow OBJT_SWAP objects to be allocated atomically, so other third
      parties (like the swapcache cleaning code) can't wiggle their way in
      and access a partially initialized object.
    
    * Reorder the vmspace_terminate() code and introduce some flags to ensure
      that resources are terminated at the proper time and in the proper order.
