Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode

I have the same panic reproducibly. Shutting off nfs_server_enable (i.e.
mountd) in rc.conf prevents it. This is with 6-STABLE cvsupped yesterday.
I'll get some more info and follow up the PR.
I rebuilt my kernel (to enable debugging) and now it doesn't panic. So it
seems that an old kernel (from around the end of May) with a new mountd
(from Sunday) will crash. But a new kernel with a new mountd won't.
FYI, I've managed to reproduce this on a 7-CURRENT kernel, so will try to
take a look at this in detail in the next few days. It looks like a race
during socket connect/accept for UNIX domain sockets, likely involving
simultaneous close, which may be a sign of a bug in mountd (or the like)
that triggers it. Of course, the kernel shouldn't panic under those
circumstances. :-)
On further reflection, this is simply a bug in the UNIX domain socket code,
and has to do with a race between an attempt to connect to a socket and the
socket being closed, such as may happen during a reboot. I'll do some more
digging and see about a possible fix for this.
