New Revision: 197129
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/197129

Log:
  Fix an API issue in leave processing for IPv4 multicast groups.
   * Do not assume that the group lookup performed by imo_match_group()
     is valid when ifp is NULL in this case.
   * Instead, return EADDRNOTAVAIL if the ifp cannot be resolved for the
     membership we are being asked to leave.
  
  Caveat user:
   * The way IPv4 multicast memberships are implemented in the inpcb layer
     at the moment, has the side-effect that struct ip_moptions will
     still hold the membership, under the old ifp, until ip_freemoptions()
     is called for the parent inpcb.
   * The underlying issue is: the inpcb layer does not get notification
     of ifp being detached going away in a thread-safe manner.
     This is non-trivial to fix.
  
  But hey, at least the kernel should't panic when you unplug a card.
