 New Revision: 254053
 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/254053
 
 Log:
   Revert the MFC of the r244237, done as r244806.  There are indeed bugs
   in XEN pmap.  The revert hides a panic with the cost of non-working
   vfork(2), which means more obscure misbehaviour in the usermode.
   Revert is only done on the stable branch to maintain the consistent
   erratic behaviour.
