    Happened again with the change. It's really easy to repro:

1. Get a filesystem with UFS+SU
2. Execute something that does a large number of small writes to a partitio=
n.
3. 'dd if=3D/dev/zero of=3DFOO bs=3D10m' on the same partition

    The kernel will panic with the issue I discussed above.
Thanks!
