I don't have the means to test this on stable/11, but please feel free to MFC
the change there if you can verify that it works.

Log:
  MFC r347439 by markj: Atomically update the global gMsgId in libnetgraph.

  Otherwise concurrently running threads may inadvertently use the same
  token for different messages.

  Preserve the behaviour of disallowing negative message tokens, but allow
  a message token value of zero since this simplifies the code a bit and
  tokens are documented to be non-negative.
