  Log:
  Commit 5/14 of sched_lock decomposition.
   - Protect the cp_time tick counts with atomics instead of a global lock.
     There will only be one atomic per tick and this allows all processors
     to execute softclock concurrently.
   - In softclock, protect access to rusage and td_*tick data with the
     thread_lock(), expanding the scope of the thread lock over the whole
     function.
   - Do some creative re-arranging in hardclock() to avoid excess locking.
   - Protect the p_timer fields with the per-process spinlock.
