I think that this change was premature.

NetBSD has run the pre-PMF shutdown hooks after panic for years.  I have
not heard anyone complaining about them.  Is there a particular bug you
fix by skipping them at panic?

The call to pmf_system_shutdown() is new.  If it causes problems after
a panic, I believe that this conservative change is more appropriate:
check for panic and quit after running the "legacy" shutdown hooks,
but before running pmf_system_shutdown().
