It hangs here, no ping!!! messages except the one that slipped in
before IPSec, and no ICMP pings (not responding to ARP requests).

I disabled tsleep() in nfs_boot_setaddress() just to see what
happens, and it's a bit different:

These messages continue once a second until the VM is killed,
and the network is again unresponsive.
