Event Timeline

There is something similar in sys/netpfil/pf/pf.c:880: TASK_INIT(&V_pf_overloadtask, 0, pf_overload_task, curvnet);

Guess that would need to be modified also?

Other than the above, that fixed the panic in dummynet.

From what I can see "pf_overload_task()" does not send or receive and IP packets, and does not need to run under EPOCH(9).
