cpu_reset: stopping other CPUs - machine stalls at halt or reboot

[claudiu vasadi]

Rob,

In the meantime I installed a "real" freebsd on my work T400 and I am
experiencing the same thing. I believe that at this point I can rule out a
vmware problem.

PS: I also tried hard rebooting after I consider the sync done and I did not
experience any weird behavior. Still .... is it intended to stall so long ?

I hope not, because I don't like it.
