Umm... does the above mean that kqueue can be obtained before mount,
and vnode interlock's?  If so, that is incorrect, and it needs to be
that the kqueue lock is last...  The lock order the kqueue is knlist
lock -> kqueue lock...  Where knlist lock is the lock that protects
the object (or knlist belonging to the object)...

Do we have a way to signify that you do not obtain another lock once
you have obtained the kqueue lock?
