--- Comment #5 from Warner Losh <imp@FreeBSD.org> ---
To elaberate, loading the linuxkpi drivers from loader.conf causes the modu=
les
to load earlier in the boot sequence before interrupts are enabled, threads=
 are
running and everything is fully initialized. There are dependencies in the =
code
on these things working, so when they aren't the system crashes.

One of three things can make this better: (1) Make the code fail to load if
loaded too early and print a warning (fail safe). (2) Fix the code to work
early in boot or (3) Make the code do a deferred attach fo the drivers until
after interrupts are running.

1 & 3 are likely easy, but would require some fussing around to get right. =
2 is
likely quite hard and would take a fair amount of effort. Of the three, I'd
recommend #3 for anybody looking at this bug. I'm not entirely sure that #3
would work, but reasonably sure.
