New Revision: 194943
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/194943

Log:
  Clean up reference management in in6_update_ifa and in6_unlink_ifa, and
  in particular, add a reference for in6_ifaddrhead since we do remove a
  reference for it when an IPv6 address is removed.  This fixes ifconfig
  delete of an IPv6 alias.
