Log Message:
Pull up following revision(s) (requested by phx in ticket #1382):
sys/arch/powerpc/powerpc/locore_subr.S: revision 1.55
in cpu_switchto() and the fast-softint context switch code,
put back the stwcx. instruction to clear the reservation.
we used to have this in the old cpu_switch() until it was
if-0'd in 2003 and removed completely in 2007.
this fixes hangs I've seen where a softint thread is
blocked waiting for a mutex that is not held.
this should also fix PR 44387.
