Please also merge to FreeBSD-9.  FreeBSD-9 has best performance for a
makeworld benchmark.

What is a good benchmark for showing that the fix helps?

Involuntary context switches increased by almost a factor of 2 for the
makeworld benchmark (over nfs) recently, but that was just caused by
pessimizations in the NIC driver.
