The flag allows to suppress "ngx_slab_alloc() failed: no memory" messages
from a slab allocator, e.g., if an LRU expiration is used by a consumer
and allocation failures aren't fatal.
The flag is now used in the SSL session cache code, and in the limit_req
module.
It is currently used from master process on abnormal worker termination to
unlock accept mutex (unlocking of accept mutex was broken in 1.0.2). It is
expected to be used in the future to unlock other mutexes as well.
Shared mutex code was rewritten to make this possible in a safe way, i.e.
with a check if lock was actually held by the exited process. We again use
pid to lock mutex, and use separate atomic variable for a count of processes
waiting in sem_wait().
