- Remove some OBE comments regarding cpu_exit(). cpu_exit() is no longer

  the last action of kern_exit().  Instead, it is a MD callout to cleanup
  per-process state during exit.
- Add notes of concern to Alpha and ia64 about the possible need to drop
  fp state in cpu_thread_exit() rather than in cpu_exit() since it is
  per-thread state rather than per-process.
