 sched_pin() is used by the i386 pmap to optimize TLB invalidation in SMP
 systems by limiting it to a single processor.
 Ignoring the thread pin count can cause a thread to migrate to another
 CPU where obsolete cached TLB entries may point to the wrong physical
 page. This could for example cause pmap_copy_page to copy to/from the
 wrong page.
