Complete the page queues locking needed for the page-based copy-

on-write (COW) mechanism.  (This mechanism is used by the zero-copy
TCP/IP implementation.)
 - Extend the scope of the page queues lock in vm_fault()
   to cover vm_page_cowfault().
 - Modify vm_page_cowfault() to release the page queues lock
   if it sleeps.
