>Description:
	My daily routine with my laptop involves using wireless networking at
	home, going to a coffeeshop on a different ssid, or going to work with
	wired ethernet, and coming home.  When I re-dhclient at a new location,
	or sometimes at just random times while using the wireless and
	the connection goes down and up I think, the firmware fails to load and
	I'm stuck with no network connection and dhclient saying "no such
	device" even though it appears in ifconfig.  The dmesg lines that
	appear are:

	Aug 31 08:29:58 vonnegut kernel: iwi0: could not allocate firmware DMA memory

>How-To-Repeat:
	Use iwi for an extended period of time, then re-run dhclient.  "Small"
	system memory probably helps.

>Fix:
	My current workaround is to go to old contigmalloc (which sleeps
	waiting for space to become available) and go kill apps hoping I'll end
	up freeing something contiguous.  Usually I just have to reboot,
	though (kldunloading of iwi results in a panic for me, which will be a
	separate report).
