In an effort not to re-take locks I've re-factored the code so
everything is done inside the new tb_find function. The fast path will
only take a lock if the previous TB needs patching. The generation path
will do the patching inside the generation critical section.

Hmm pushing these outside of tb_find_slow() makes me uncomfortable. I
guess tb_find_fast/slow are intimately tied together but the idea of
taking locks which are the responsibility of the calling function to
clear seems ugly to me.
