I realize that, I just think that the goal should be to eliminate the
thread free-list in favor of letting uma do its job, but that to avoid
any need to malloc in msleep, we instead let each KSE always have a
spare "hot" thread for P_KSE processes and that when it uses the hot
thread to do an upcall, the first act of the new thread will be to
allocate a new hot spare.

Does that sound ok?
