CVS commit: src/sys/kern

["Antti Kantee" <pooka%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    src

Modified Files:
        src/sys/kern: subr_pool.c

Log Message:
In pool_cache_put_slow(), pool_get() can block (it does mutex_enter()),
so we need to retry if curlwp took a context switch during the call.
Otherwise, CPU-local invariants can get screwed up:

    panic: kernel diagnostic assertion "cur->pcg_avail == cur->pcg_size" failed

This is (was) very easy to reproduce by just running:

  while : ; do RUMP_NCPU=32 ./a.out ; done

where a.out only calls rump_init().  But, any situation there's contention
and a pool doesn't have emptygroups would do.
