You didn't speak up about that in the previous discussion on arch@, 
starting 10/31/2005.  The only comment was jhb@ saying it was not useful 
alone, and he's the only one doing work on critical sections lately.

If you can think of another use for this besides one event (enter/exit), 
feel free to add it back.  Or, consider adding KTR_SUBSYS as a one-off 
use like KTR_DEV is for other parts of the system.  KTR_CRITICAL would 
be conditionally defined as KTR_SUBSYS when needed.
