    sys/kern             vfs_aio.c 
  Log:
  When asked to use kqueue, AIO stores its internal state in the
  `kn_sdata' member of the newly registered knote. The problem is that
  this member is overwritten by a call to kevent(2) with the EV_ADD flag,
  targetted at the same kevent/knote. For instance, a userland application
  may set the pointer to NULL, leading to a panic.
  
  A testcase was provided by the submitter.
