Good catch. I modifed the kernel to reclaim all vnodes on every
getnewvnode() and also slowed down zfs_reclaim_complete() and I was able
to reproduce this race. I also found another problem - when we defer
znode destruction there is a race where file system unmount or rollback
can be called between zfs_freebsd_reclaim() and zfs_reclaim_complete(),
which can case various problems. I almost have a patch ready, but it
needs some more work. I'll post it ASAP.
