Shutdown -r under -current hangs on RPi3

From time to time, but seemingly more often lately, a Pi3
get stuck during shutdown -r. The machine is running -current
from a mechanical usb hard disk through a powered hub. No micro
SD card is used. Once up it's quite stable.

The console reports

Khelp module "ertt" can't unload until its refcount drops from 1 to 0.
Resetting system ...

At that point all activity ceases. The only clue I can recognize is that
the red power LED remains off, as if FreeBSD never relinquishes control
to the Pi firmware, which turns the LED back on at powerup. Power-cycling
results in a normal reboot.

Thanks for reading, and any suggestions for further testing.
