 I have identifed the cause of the panic. It seems, that it is caused
 by NETGRAPH calling net_add_domain() during SYSINIT(SI_SUB_PSEUDO)
 to add the netgraph address family and protocol. That function must
 not be called before phase SI_SUB_PROTO_DOMAIN, though, or incomplete
 initialization of network device structures will result, leading to
 a panic during INET6 neighbour discovery.
 
 The following work-around moves the initialization of all i4b devices
 before netgraph, as required:

  /*---------------*/
 
 This is only a work-around, since netgraph should really not call
 net_add_domain() before phase SI_SUB_PROTO_DOMAIN!
