+It is not possible to guard allocations that really expect theirselves to be
+allocated from
+.Xr uma 9 ,
+utilizing additional interfaces apart from
+.Fn uma_zalloc
+and
+.Fn uma_free ,
+for example

+cluster zones belong to that kind of allocations.
+Attempt to guard them would lead to kernel panic.
