svn commit: r230984 - head/sys/kern

[Ryan Stone]

Author: rstone
Date: Sat Feb  4 16:49:29 2012
New Revision: 230984
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/230984

Log:
  Whenever a new kernel thread is spawned, explicitly clear any CPU affinity
  set on the new thread.  This prevents the thread from inadvertently
  inheriting affinity from a random sibling.
