I've used  bge(4) today with WITNESS enabled. Yes, i've got panic about
'recursion on non-recursive mutex' when i tried to issue 'ifconfig bge0 up'
command.
Though it was easy to fix it. (look at if_bge.c rev. 1.140).

bge(4) is somewhat special cause it can handle TBI cards.
(it is using bge_ifmedia_upd() inside bge_init_locked, thus i've added
bge_ifmedia_upd_locked() in order to avoid mutex recursion).

vge(4) (which is copper only, i.e. pure miibus(4) driver) is using 
mii_mediachg() inside vge_init(), so ifmedia callbacks can be locked 'as is'.

Am i mistaken somewhere?
