In my view, IP fragmentation should occur in ip_output after IPsec
encryption. Something like:

1. rip_output() has mbuf chain where only first mbuf has M_PKTHDR flag
2. ip_output() -> IPSEC_OUTPUT() -> esp_output() -> m_unshare(). We
should still have only one mbuf with M_PKTHDR flag here.
3. esp_output_cb() -> ipsec_process_done() -> ip_output()
4. Now IP fragmentation should occur: ip_fragment() creates chain of
mbufs to send, where M_PKTHDR flag will be set for each fragment.

It is not clear to me why it helps. The panic happens on outbound path,
where mbuf should be allocated by network stack and should be writeable.
ip_reass() usually used on inbound path. I think the patch just hides
the problem in another place.
Do you mean that cxgbe can produce !WRITEABLE mbuf for received packet
and then pass it to the network stack?
