In order to declare a mutex which will be used before malloc(9) becomes available in the kernel, MUTEX_DECLARE() should be used, then it should be initialized by passing the MTX_COLD flag to mtx_init(), so that a statically allocated buffer will be used, instead of malloc()ing a buffer, right? Will it be safe to call mtx_destroy() for this mutex? /sys/kern/kern_mutex.c:mtx_destroy() seems to always try to free() the buffer...
