Log:
  Only initialize some mutexes for the default VNET.
  
  In r208160, sctp_it_ctl was made a global variable, across all VNETs.
  However, sctp_init() is called for every VNET that is created.  This results
  in the same global mutexes which are part of sctp_it_ctl being initialized.  This can result
  in crashes if many jails are created.
  
  To reproduce the problem:
    (1)  Take a GENERIC kernel config, and add options for: VIMAGE, WITNESS,
         INVARIANTS.
    (2)  Run this command in a loop:
         jail -l -u root -c path=/ name=foo persist vnet && jexec foo ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1/8 && jail -r foo
  
         (see http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2010-November/021280.html )
  
  Witness will warn about the same mutex being initialized.
  
  Fix the problem by only initializing these mutexes in the default VNET.
