We can unlock before uma_zfree(), that would reduce contention.

Why do we need the lock in this function at all? We don't manipulate
the TAILQ.

 That's indeed a good point.  When I started prototyping this change
having TW_WLOCK in tw_pcbrele() made sense but not anymore.

 Below a patch that removes TW_WLOCK from tw_pcbrele(), I will do
another review pass with this change.

 Thanks.
