  Modified files:
    sys/i386/i386        trap.c 
  Log:
  Push down Giant some in trap_pfault() so we don't grab Giant around
  trap_fatal() to make restarting from panic's slightly easier.  Before if
  one did 'w 0 0' in ddb, the longjmp in ddb inside of trap_fatal() would
  result in Giant being held (or recursed one level deeper) which led to
  problems later on.  You can now drop to teh debugger, do 'w 0 0', and
  continue w/o a problem.
