    I think I see what may be happening here, and I am starting to wonder
    if it is also the cause of the system lockups I am getting when testing
    HAMMER under extreme loads (with hundreds of user threads which are
    sometimes cpu-bound).

    I think it may be deadlocking between lwkt_acquire() and lwkt_schedule().
    The thread trying to migrate between cpu's is getting stuck and the 
    acquisition loop is not processing incoming IPIs while it is waiting for
    the thread to deschedule on the other cpu.

    Please try this patch.
