I don't see anything in the generated code for the call that can cause
this, except for sector_size really being zero, or the result of
1048576/sector_size being zero.

On i386, you get this:

        .loc    1 1349 19               # =
/usr/src/sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:1349:19
        movl    -56(%ebp), %ecx         # -56(%rbp) =3D sectors
.Ltmp1148:
        #DEBUG_VALUE: xbd_connect:sectors <- %ECX
        .loc    1 1349 38 is_stmt 0     # =
/usr/src/sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:1349:38
        movl    $1048576, %eax          # imm =3D 0x100000
        xorl    %edx, %edx
        divl    -52(%ebp)               # -52(%ebp) =3D sector_size
        movl    %eax, %edi
        .loc    1 1349 27               # =
/usr/src/sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:1349:27
        xorl    %edx, %edx
        movl    %ecx, %eax
        divl    %edi
        movl    %eax, -32(%ebp)         # 4-byte Spill

On amd64, it looks pretty similar:

        .loc    1 1349 19               # =
/usr/src/sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:1349:19
        movq    -112(%rbp), %rcx        # -112(%rbp) =3D sectors
.Ltmp1128:
        #DEBUG_VALUE: xbd_connect:sectors <- %RCX
        .loc    1 1349 38 is_stmt 0     # =
/usr/src/sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:1349:38
        movl    $1048576, %eax          # imm =3D 0x100000
        xorl    %edx, %edx
        divq    -88(%rbp)               # -88(%rbp) =3D sector_size
        movq    %rax, %rsi
        .loc    1 1349 27               # =
/usr/src/sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:1349:27
        xorl    %edx, %edx
        movq    %rcx, %rax
        divq    %rsi
        movq    %rax, %r15

Colin, does it panic for you in the first or the second div?
