vector of slots for lazily freed objects. For each deallocation, before
doing the hard work of locking the arena and deallocating, try several times
to randomly insert the object into the vector using atomic operations.
This approach is particularly effective at reducing contention for
multi-threaded applications that use the producer-consumer model, wherein
one producer thread allocates objects, then multiple consumer threads
deallocate those objects.

currently, before to spin the turnstile spinlock is acquired and the
waiters flag is set.
This is not strictly necessary, so just spin before to acquire the
spinlock and to set the flags.
This will simplify a lot other functions too, as now we have the waiters
flag set only if there are actually waiters.
This should make wakeup/sleeping couplet faster under intensive mutex
workload.
This also fixes a bug in rw_try_upgrade() in the adaptive case, where
turnstile_lookup() will recurse on the ts_lock lock that will never be
really released [1].

the lookup by ieee channel number may fail leaving a null ptr in
se_chan; if this happens fallback to the channel recorded when the
frame is processed (curchan). Since the frame doesn't contribute
to scan results for the sta this is acceptable.
