Upgrade to 11.2-BETA1: vboxdrv kernel modulo load leads to panic unless vbox ports be rebuilt

Hi FreeBSD stable,

I have upgraded from 11.1 to 11.2-BETA1 right now. I use Virtualbox to
run Windows 7 from the FreeBSD box, and just after to complete the
upgrade and reboot, the system panics just after to load kernel module
vboxdrv.

The workaround is rebuild both emulators/virtualbox-ose and
emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod ports from within 11.2-BETA1, and
after that everything works nicely as before the upgrade. I hope this
help other people suffering a similar issue. Best regards.
