kernel - Remove mplock from KTRACE paths
* The mplock is no longer needed for KTRACE, ktrace writes are serialized
by the vnode lock and everything else is MPSAFE. Note that this change
means that even fast system calls may interleave in the ktrace output on
a multi-threaded program.
* Fix ktrace bug related to vkernels. The syscall2() code assumes that
no tokens are held on entry (since we are coming from usermode), but
a system call made from the vkernel may actually be nested inside
another syscall2(). The mplock KTRACE held caused this to assert in
the nested syscall2(). The removal of the mplock from the ktrace path
also fixes this bug.
* Minor comment adjustment in vm_vmspace.c.
