so this may be completely unrelated but over on on oi-dev, someone recently
reported a different driver-related kernel memory allocation issue with the
nvidia driver with oi151a5 which he did not see with oi151a3 / 0.151.1.4

See http://openindiana.org/pipermail/oi-dev/2012-July/001541.html

Coincidence?  Another manifestation of the same underlying bug?
