It all started with:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2014-September/039730.html

Last (conclusive) email in that thread:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2015-January/040895.html

That issue was fixed by: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1438 i.e. https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=277213

That got reverted as it was not entirely correct/complete. And rrs@ started working on a better approach with https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1711 

After applying D1711, we started seeing a bunch of other panics:
panic #1 https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1711#54
panic #2 https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1711#55
panic #3 https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1711#56

And finally. after applying patch from this review D1777, we do not see any of the panics and machines seem happy.
