Issue which is supposedly fixed by the commit is not due to the possibly
excessive wakeups. bufspace_release() and bufspace_wakeup() clear
the needsbuffer variable, while the code flow in getnewbuf() calls
bufspace_wait() to wait for the condition, which prevented the buffer
allocation from succeeding, to pass.
