td->td_critnest manipulations do not use atomic_add_int ?

This should be fine as it only gets modified by the current thread. If 
an interrupt comes while we are decreasing td_critnest back to 0, then 
we just don't get preempted immediately, but at the end of our quantum, 
or when someone else tries to preempt us, whichever comes first, which 
should be totally harmless.
