What was broken about the if test?  The intention was that when 
FULL_PREEMPTION was off, we only preempt if the destination thread is 
an ithread or if the current thread is an idle priority thread.  I 
think you've changed it so that we never preempt if the current thread 
is an idle thread now, which is very bad.  I took out explicit calls to 
mi_switch() in the page zeroing thread in reliance on the behavior that 
we always preempt an idle priority thread.
