It seems that our hosts running with this patch are "dead" after a
while while under load (poudriere): ssh on both IPv4 and IPv6 are dead
as well as http/https on IPv4/IPv6 (remote site, no connection via ssh
anymore, but hosts respond to ping, nmap show several other services on
local network as reachable, but no ssh(22)/apache24(http/https).
Other hosts at OS level before this patch seem to be allright so far
(i.e. FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #39 main-n251899-fa255ab1b895: Thu Dec 23
13:48:41 CET 2021 amd64).

I have to admit its a wild guess that this patch is the culprit, but it
is strange that two out of four hosts with this patch applied are now
both unreachable on both ssh and http (lates www/apache24) while two
other hosts stuck with the version showed above seem to operate on
ssh/http.

Can investigate earliest after 26th of December.

Kind regards,
