This change causes fsck_ffs(8) and mount(8) to hang unkillably on
sparc64 when the kernel is built with either GEOM_PART_GPT or
GEOM_LABEL. When breaking into the kernel the backtrace so far
looked like one of these two ways:
g_wither_washer() at g_wither_washer+0x18
g_run_events() at g_run_events+0x4dc
g_event_procbody() at g_event_procbody+0x8c
fork_exit() at fork_exit+0x9c
fork_trampoline() at fork_trampoline+0x8

find_instance() at find_instance+0x80
_sx_xlock() at _sx_xlock+0xf0
g_run_events() at g_run_events+0xb0
g_event_procbody() at g_event_procbody+0x8c
fork_exit() at fork_exit+0x9c
fork_trampoline() at fork_trampoline+0x8

I've no clue about geom(4) so I also have no idea how to debug this.
