atari/dev/md_root.c uses getiobuf(9) to get buffer,
but getiobuf(9) man page says:

so adding brelse() is not correct fix for the initial problem.

I've tried atari's md_root.c (reading md_root from floppy) on i386
with some changes, and now it looks it's enough to clear
bp->b_oflags (which was introduced on vmlocking2 merge)
as per the similar function in sys/kern/subr_disk.c:
http://cvsweb.NetBSD.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/sys/kern/subr_disk.c.diff?r1=1.89&r2=1.90

Note it's also safe to clip bp->b_bcount with bytes_left
because size of md_root might not be a multiple of the cylinder size.
(5MB md_root on i386 causes panic later due to malloc corruption)
