No, there is no single mutex around PF specifically in OpenBSD, the
whole kernel is wrapped in a biglock.
I think if they work out all the nits and dead-ends we may have
something to learn from this effort, but I don't see this code coming
back to OpenBSD.
It's not critical because they can chang

OpenBSD SMP is based on BigLock, so only one processor at the time can
execute kernel code, and IP Stack is kernel side only.
As far as I remember.

I have the same understanding you have Pachl. I believe OpenBSD IP
Stack is not multithreaded implemented.
