FWIW, mbuf(9) alloc functions need a redo with similar resoning. There are
many places where a failed mget() will cause a panic.
Especially, the NFS code seems to like doing unchcked/unsafe
mbuf allocations, and then getting messed half-way somewhere
else. I have some patches for this which I will commit some
time once I get back into the loop.
Thanks and regards,
