Ok, that narrows it down.  There can't be many places in the kernel
which use the movl opcode.

This PR is currently content-free.  Please consult the chapter in the
FreeBSD handbook which deals with kernel panics, obtain a crashdump
and a traceback and include the results as a followup.  Otherwise
there is no way for anyone to replicate or identify your problem.
