Fix process exit vs reap race introduced in r329449
The race manifested itself mostly in terms of crashes with "spin lock
held too long".
Relevant parts of respective code paths:
exit: reap:
PROC_LOCK(p);
PROC_SLOCK(p);
p->p_state == PRS_ZOMBIE
PROC_UNLOCK(p);
PROC_LOCK(p);
/* exit work */
if (p->p_state == PRS_ZOMBIE) /* true */ proc_reap() free proc
/* more exit work */
PROC_SUNLOCK(p);
Thus a still exiting process is reaped.
Prior to the change the zombie check was followed by slock/sunlock trip
which prevented the problem.
Even code prior to this commit has a bug: the proc is still accessed for
statistic collection purposes. However, the severity is rather small and
the bug may be fixed in a future commit.
