Note:

This bug is only harmful if you modify any of the structures that comprise
`struct mbuf` as the observation hasn't been violated on FreeBSD CURRENT [yet].
Isilon runs into this issue because we add additional fields to track mbufs.

Status update:

Isilon is waiting for a fix from upstream (Intel); we will work with Intel to
get the fix tested and pushed into FreeBSD.
