    Remove deadlock in rc caused by pwait waiting for itself.
    
    The following situation can trigger the deadlock:
    1) Long time ago a_service was started through rc.d
    2) We want to restart a_service and issue service a_service restart
    3) rc.subr reads current process PID (via file or process),
       sends TERM signal and runs pwait with PID harvested
    4) a_service process dies very quickly so it's PID becomes available.
       It is possible that while original process was running,
       PID counter overflowed and pwait got assigned a_service's PID.
    
    This patch ignores pid(s) to wait that are equal to pwait PID.
