>Description:
When running lots of copies (>100) of the SCTP API tester application 'api_tests' the following panic occurs:

Kernel page fault with the following non-sleepable locks held:
exclusive sleep mutex sctp-inp (inp) r = 0 (0xffffff011bb97960) locked @ /usr/src/sys/netinet/sctp_input.c:93
KDB: stack backtrace:

--- trap 0, rip = 0, rsp = 0xffffff800003dd30, rbp = 0 ---

The same panic and stack trace also occurs with the sctp-tcb lock held from /usr/src/sys/netinet/sctp_pcb.c:1892

The message from sctp_pcb.c "This conflict in free SHOULD not be happening!" is also occasionally displayed, though the system doesn't panic at that point.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run a shell script containing around 100 copies of the command:

./api_tests > /dev/null &

It takes a minute or so of running the script, waiting for most of the api_test processes to quit then running the script again before the system panics.
