Not directly related, but...

I would like to point out that no all uses of curproc / curlwp are bad. 
  Anyting that inherently operates on the context of the running process 
/ lwp is a totally appropriate use of curproc, and in fact using 
curproc could prevent bugs from happening.

Here's a short list off the top of my head:

- lockmgr()
- ltsleep()
- copyin() / copyout() / related functions
- Anything in the trap path
