[Gluster-devel] swapcontest usage in syncio.c

[Anand Avati]

The change should be sufficient only in syncop_switchto(). Change in
syncop_yeild() should not be necessary. I still don't understand how/why
this change will help NetBSD, but it shouldn't break anything on Linux
(calling makecontext() within or outside syncop_switchto() should not
matter).
