New Revision: 255244
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/255244

Log:
  The vm_page_trysbusy() should not fail when shared busy counter or
  VPB_BIT_WAITERS flag were changed between reading of busy_lock and the
  cas.  The vm_page_sbusy(), which is the only user of
  vm_page_trysbusy() in the tree, panics on the failure, which in these
  cases is transient and do not mean that the current page state
  prevents sbusying.
  
  Retry the operation inside vm_page_trysbusy() if cas failed, only
  return a failure when VPB_BIT_SHARED is cleared.
