Hi Kostik,

Without our change in getblk() whenewer we allocate new block we get panic:

panic: bremfree: buffer 0xffffff807bf86080 not on a queue.

It is because blocks with B_MANAGED flag are not queued on any queue in 
brelse() function. Could you look at it and give us approval to merge 
this change into HEAD?

thanks,
grzesiek
