  SVN rev 222938 on 2011-06-10 18:55:58Z by jhb
  
  MFC 222032:
  Fix a race in the SMP rendezvous code.  Specifically, the write by the
  last CPU to to finish the rendezvous action may become visible to
  different CPUs at different times.  As a result, the CPU that initiated
  the rendezvous may exit the rendezvous and drop the lock allowing another
  rendezvous to be initiated on the same CPU or a different CPU.  In that
  case the exit sentinel may be cleared before all CPUs have noticed causing
  those CPUs to hang forever.
  
  Workaround this by using a generation count to notice when this race
  occurs and to exit the rendezvous in that case.
