Ingo Weinhold c8a342a476 * The method vm_cache_remove_consumer() and the page daemon used to get
a reference to a by them not yet referenced cache was not correct.
  They only incremented the reference count, but a vnode cache reference
  includes also a vnode reference. In case of the page daemon this would
  cause vnode references to be lost (causing bug #1465).
* The page daemon used an unsafe method to access a yet unreferenced
  page cache. There was nothing that prevented the cache from being
  deleted while the page daemon tried to get a reference. The
  vm_page::cache field is now protected by the page cache table
  spinlock, too, which the new function
  vm_cache_acquire_page_cache_ref(), used by the page daemon, also
  acquires while trying to get the reference.
