>Description:

	Name of vm-zone passed to zinit(). In 'nfs.ko' module zone name located
in static KLD's memory. This causes problems after KLD is unloaded because
'zname' now points to an invalid memory region.

>How-To-Repeat:

	kldload nfs.ko
	sysctl vm.zone /* that works now */
	kldunload nfs.ko
	sysctl vm.zone /* and now we got a panic */

>Fix:
	
	Not sure, but probably pointer to zname should be allocated
dynamically or, better have something like zuninit() function.
