Summary

If LOCAL_CREDS is set on a unix socket and we use sendfile, sendfile
will call uipc_send(PRUS_NOTREADY), which prepends a control message to
M_NOTREADY mbufs. uipc_send() then calls sbappendcontrol() instead of
sbappend(), and sbappendcontrol() was clearing M_NOTREADY, leading to
nasty results.

Test Plan

Ran a simple test case that previously triggers this bug and causes a kernel
panic due to an mbuf double free.
