This is the freshly allocated buf that causes the panic; is this what is
needed?  I "know" which vnode will cause the panic on vnlru cleanup, but I
don't know how to walk the memory list without a 'hook'.. as in, i can
setup the kernel in a state that I know will panic when the vnode is
cleaned up, I can force a panic 'early' (kill -9 1), and then I could get
that vnode.. if I could get the vnode list to walk.
