sys/vm vm_object.c
Log:
Ensure that vm_object_deallocate() doesn't dereference a stale object
pointer: When vm_object_deallocate() sleeps because of a non-zero
paging in progress count on either object or object's shadow,
vm_object_deallocate() must ensure that object is still the shadow's
backing object when it reawakens. In fact, object may have been
deallocated while vm_object_deallocate() slept. If so, reacquiring
the lock on object can lead to a deadlock.
