>Description:
netisr has been broken in r230059

and after booting there are conflicting values in sysctl net.isr
>How-To-Repeat:
just run:
#sysctl net.isr
# sysctl net.isr
net.isr.direct: 0
net.isr.direct_force: 0
net.isr.dispatch: direct

for net.isr.dispatch=direct is conflicting with values direct=0 and direct_force=0

>Fix:
you must call netisr_dispatch_policy_compat() in any case dispite on net.isr.dispatch is set or not in /boot/loader.conf

or send way: you must setup default values for direct and direct_force to 1 because of default dispatcher is 'direct'

But I think first way is more right way
