  Log:
  Commit 7/14 of sched_lock decomposition.
   - Use thread_lock() rather than sched_lock for per-thread scheduling
     sychronization.
   - Use the per-process spinlock rather than the sched_lock for per-process
     scheduling synchronization.
   - Use a global kse spinlock to protect upcall and thread assignment.  The
     per-process spinlock can not be used because this lock must be acquired
     via mi_switch() where we already hold a thread lock.  The kse spinlock
     is a leaf lock ordered after the process and thread spinlocks.
