NOTE: don't 'cont' from HAMMER Debugger() entries. panic or reboot.

There are a few places where HAMMER enters the kernel Debugger() on
a CRC check error instead of panicing. Please do not 'cont' from
those places if you find yourself at a debugger prompt, it may result
in a bad data block being committed to the media by the reblocker.
Panic or reboot the box instead.
Currently the only known case where this may occur is a race between
the reblocker and normal activity. We are tracking it down and I
will also change HAMMER to panic instead of call Debugger().
It is a very rare race.
