mfsmount: sysctl(kern.proc.filedesc) error: ESRCH (No such process)

[oszafraniec]

We have a lot of those errors in our logs on FreeBSD servers. Remount doesn't help. It shows up all the time from time to time randomly.

I found that ESRCH means: https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=errno&apropos=0&sektion=2&manpath=FreeBSD+10.0-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html

3 ESRCH No such process. No process could be found corresponding to that specified by the given process ID.
