  Modified files:
    sys/kern             kern_exit.c 
  Log:
  Don't hold the process mutex across calls to FREE() since the vm system
  uses lockmgr locks and this leads to a lock order reversal.  At this point
  in wait1() the process is not on any process lists or in the process tree,
  so no other process should be able to find it or have a reference to it
  anyways, so the locking is not needed.
