As for non-zero exclusive count panic, it's odd because although
lockmgr() triggered the non-zero exclusive count panic, kgdb shows
that lkp->lk_exclusivecount == 0 (shown below). Usually the panic is
followed by several more panics even during the dump routine is running,
but luckily I managed to save the crash dump and put it on my leaf account
as ~y0netan1/crash/{kern,vmcore}.21 (these are saved yesterday, so this
kernel doesn't have the patch you suggested in another message yet).

The known good kernel is built from the source as of 0b38f, and known
bad kernel is from 2a418. Sometimes it was even possible to trigger
the panic by just opening the older kernel and the dump with kgdb, or
running buildkernel, but it's not consistent among ``bad'' kernels.
