Message:

Continue to de-oversynchronize the kernel.

• replace as→refcount with an atomic counter; accesses to this

reference counter are not to be done when the as→lock mutex is held;
this gets us rid of mutex_lock_active();

Remove the possibility of a deadlock between TLB shootdown and asidlock.

• get rid of mutex_lock_active() on as→lock
• when locking the asidlock spinlock, always do it conditionally and with

preemption disabled; in the unsuccessful case, enable interrupts and try again

• there should be no deadlock between TLB shootdown and the as→lock mutexes
• PLEASE REVIEW !!!

Add DEADLOCK_PROBE's to places where we have spinlock_trylock() loops.
