    TCP/IP events always happen in places where sleepable locks can be held,
    so this doesn't require the semantics of KTR. Instead, it seems feasible
    to send the tcp info straight to syslog and let it direct the relevant
    info to /var/log/tcpdebug.log. No need for a translation program like
    ktrdump then.
