kern/83999: [firewire] [patch] panic in fw_bus_explore due to NULL reference

[Hidetoshi Shimokawa]

I'm sorry that I was late to apply the patch.

Concerning MPSAFE, is the CAM subsystem already MPSAFE?
(I'm not following recent FreeBSD development.)
I think that it's not worth to make effort for MPSAFE if CAM is
not MPSAFE.
