 I described absolutely another bug on 5.4-STABLE.  It was impossible to
 unmount file-backed disk (attached by 'mdconfig -a -t vnode -f ...') from
 mounted NFS file system on a client system.
 
 Since I could not reproduce this bug on 8.2-STABLE with new NFS client
 and server, this PR can be closed.
