Research direction
Start by reproducing the hyperkit exit-and-restart loop and observe the FID pool exhausted notice. Trace connection and FID cleanup around the restart path; done means the loop no longer exhausts the pool or leaves FIDs unreleased.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
When hyperkit exits and restarts in a loop I see lots of these:
2016-12-09 ... <Notice>: FID pool exhausted (will wait for a free one; deadlock possible)
Perhaps there's a failure to clean up a connection or a FID somewhere? I would have thought the FID pool was per connection but perhaps there's a problem there.
