Description 
As discussed in 6786090, calling ipsq_try_enter() with NEW_OP and
reentry_ok can lead to panics and misconfiguration of the ill.
While coming up with a comprehensive fix is necessary, in the
short-term we can eliminate known instances of the problem by
changing the calls to ipsq_try_enter() in ip_sioctl_plink() and
ip_sioctl_plink_ipmod() to not allow reentry.
