Hm!

How many places in the kernel did you leave like this? :P

I mean, I'm glad to have stuff be forced to be cleaned up, but you
didn't even leave a KASSERT or a debug warning that something

person to be caught out like this.

Would you please give me a hand with this? I've sunk a lot of (unpaid,
personal) spare time into getting the RSS stuff into shape and now a
lot of it just plainly doesn't do anything. :(
