-### Improve kernel spinlock debug-ability
-* Add a const char *descr  field to the spinlock structure.
-* Adjust spin_init() and all use cases, SPINLOCK_INITIALIZER() could juse use macro string extensions (# head) to install the name there.
-* Adjust error messages to print the spinlock desc field.

 ### Partially rewrite buffer cache
 * Buffer cache buffers map VM pages from the filesystems VM-backed vnodes, the "buffer space" is the maximum amount of virtual space to allocate to these buffers.
 * When the buffer_map KVA space gets fragmented it caused very expensive defrag operations, the buffer_map KVA was recently increased to double the actual buffer space to allow full space utilization in the face of fragmentation and reduce the frequency of defrag operations.
