This changeset broke my qemu test environment. With DIAGNOSTIC, DEBUG,
and LOCKDEBUG boot gets as far as starting init; then it sits there
for a while and after a few moments prints

   UVM: pid 2 (sh), uid 0 killed: out of swap
   Out of memory allocating ksiginfo for pid 2

several times (that is, it kills pid 2 several times, which is itself
odd) and then asserts at line 2383 of pmap.c, which is in pmap_destroy
checking pmap.pm_obj[i].uo_npages == 0.

GENERIC is less overtly broken, but hangs during multiuser boot
sometime after printing "Adding interface aliases:."

This is on amd64 and it appears to be qemu-specific, or possibly
specific to my qemu setup; at least nobody else seems to have hit it.
It's also possible that it only happens with a new kernel and older
userland; the userland in the VM image is 5.99.45 from mid-February.

Suggestions? I can try to apply the changes piecemeal to see at what
point things blow up, but I'm not familiar enough with the TCP code to
tackle it properly without putting a big chunk of time into it, which
I don't really have...
