The giantless vm was already merged back to RELENG_5 and enabled on amd64,
and i386.  I hope to merge the giantless vfs back after a month or so of
no problems on -current.  I hope to commit it to -current this week.

I haven't received any feedback from the list though.  I hope people are
testing it.  Perhaps the silence indicates universal success? :-)
