:panic: assertion: _tp->tt_msg->tt_cpuid == mycpuid in tcp_callout_active
:mp_lock = 00000001; cpuid = 1

    This one is really difficult to track down even with the
    kernel core.  I think the only real way to do it is to add
    assertions near the top of tcp_input() and tcp_output() after
    the tp is looked up to assert that tt->tt_msg->tt_cpuid ==
    mycpu->gd_cpuid, to try to catch the problem earlier in the
    procedure chain.

    Even worse, we still have ipv6 hacks for the tcp stack that
    puts all ipv6 transport processing on cpu 0, and ipv6->ipv4
    conversion hacks for connections that screw up the model.
    It's a real mess, frankly.
