It looks like this is done in a few places in other bits of code...

sys/netinet/ip_fw.c:        ipfw_dyn_v = malloc(curr_dyn_buckets * sizeof r,
sys/netinet/ip_fw.c-                   M_IPFW, M_DONTWAIT | M_ZERO);
sys/netinet/ip_fw.c-        if (ipfw_dyn_v == NULL)

sys/netinet6/frag6.c:           q6 = (struct ip6q *)malloc(sizeof(struct ip6q), M_FTABLE,
sys/netinet6/frag6.c-                   M_DONTWAIT);
sys/netinet6/frag6.c-           if (q6 == NULL)

sys/netinet6/frag6.c:   ip6af = (struct ip6asfrag *)malloc(sizeof(struct ip6asfrag), M_FTABLE,
sys/netinet6/frag6.c-       M_DONTWAIT);
sys/netinet6/frag6.c-   if (ip6af == NULL)

So, these are bad? It looks like they were fixed in January by imp, and
then backed out in February. I have no idea why it was backed out.
