Is there a reason vm_pager_allocate acquires vm_mtx itself if necessary but vm_pager_deallocate does not? At the moment, detaching an md(4) disk will panic the system with a failed mtx_assert in vm_pager_deallocate. This can be fixed one of two ways: vm_pager_deallocate could be made to deal with vm_mtx itself like vm_pager_allocate does, or md(4) and any other drivers which call vm_pager_deallocate can be fixed to acquire vm_mtx. So which will it be? I'll supply patches for either case.
