This patch enables multiple concurrent threads to call thread_join on a particular thread In thread_join(), we simply make checks regarding whether the thread structure has been freed or not. This could just be a quick fix. A better solution would be to implement reference counting on thread objects, and free the resources when the count goes to zero.

structure has been freed or not.
