Hm, it's been UMA_ZONE_NOFREE since day one.  The reason may or may not be 
relevant after all the work rwatson has done with locking.

But even if the actual backing memory is not freed, we can still reduce 
the max for the zone, thereby solving the ephemeral port shortage problem. 
We'll fail to free a few K of ram, but that's no big deal.
