Log:
  MFC r195003:
  
  Fix a bug reported by pho@ where one can induce a panic by decreasing
  vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem below the current amount of memory used by dirhash. When
  ufsdirhash_build() is called with the memory in use greater than dirhash_maxmem,
  it attempts to free up memory by calling ufsdirhash_recycle(). If successful in
  freeing enough memory, ufsdirhash_recycle() leaves the dirhash list locked. But
  at this point in ufsdirhash_build(), the list is not explicitly unlocked after
  the call(s) to ufsdirhash_recycle(). When we next attempt to lock the dirhash
  list, we will get a "panic: _mtx_lock_sleep: recursed on non-recursive mutex
  dirhash list".
