Hi Gleb,

I upgraded my laptop running 13-CURRENT from r354133 to r354437 and it
crashed during boot as you can see in the pictures [1].  It seems like
it crashed while it was configuring network.

After bisect I managed to boot fine with r354148 and reproduce the crash
with this revision applied.

Here is the relevant portion of my /etc/rc.conf:

# Lagg
ifconfig_em0="up"
wlans_iwn0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA"
create_args_wlan0="wlanaddr 3c:97:0e:48:3f:f8 up"
cloned_interfaces="lagg0"
ifconfig_lagg0="up laggproto failover laggport em0 laggport wlan0 DHCP"
ifconfig_lagg0_ipv6="inet6 accept_rtadv"
rtsold_enable="YES"
