Both on dangerously dedicated disks, mfs statically compiled into the kernel.

>Description:

When i try to mount something on a mfs. Something "touches" about 170-180 megs of swap which then becomes dedicated for the mfs. This is very non-standard behaviour and no other machine i know of does this. Also very annoying until i actually _use_ the mfs mount i would like to have that memory for swap.

>How-To-Repeat:

mount -t mfs /dev/da1b /mnt

>Fix:
	
Unknown. Should this have been a kern Category instead of bin?
