There=E2=80=99s still something wrong with this.  I have a machine with =
28 cores (56 with hyperthreading) and 256GB of RAM, and ever since you =
committed r281162, it panics early in boot with a failed assertion.  It =
looks like the first few members of a uma_slab_t are getting overwritten =
accidentally, and somehow the padding of the extra member in the =
uma_zone_t was previously protecting it.  I don=E2=80=99t know the exact =
cause yet, but I must ask that you revert to r281161 in HEAD and =
stable/10 until the problem is resolved.

Thanks,
Scott
