    You can ignore them.  It's a long-standing bug.  Basically the
    kernel is having a hard time unmounting the MFS filesystems due to
    their dual user/kernel nature.   Basically the kernel tries to kill
    all user processes before unmounting but that also winds up messing
    up the MFS mounts since each one uses a user process as a placeholder.

    The system should still halt ok.  It just spews a lot of warnings.
