>Description:
I reproducible get the following (handtranscribed) panic
when sending an zfs snapshot to a geli provider based on a
labeled USB stick that disappears (due to a bug, or because
it's unplugged):

It seems to be important that ZFS is actually writing to the stick.
If the stick is unplugged while the operation is stalled for other
reasons, this particular panic doesn't seem to occur.

In case the zpool layout isn't clear, it's the same as used in:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=162010

While I end up in the debugger, dumping core doesn't work
and produces a double fault.

The panic above is from a custom kernel without WITNESS and
INVARIANTS (a bit older than the uname -a output above),
but enabling them doesn't seem to affect the trace
before the double fault.

I wasn't able to reproduce the panic by unplugging the stick
while writing to the pool using dd (but only tried once).
>How-To-Repeat:
Either use a flaky USB stick as geli-encrypted vdev and wait
for it to disappear by itself while a zfs receive is in progress
and actually writing to the device, or use a reliable stick and
unplug it manually while zpool iostat is showing writes.
