 >Description:
 If NETGRAPH is loaded and you 'ifconfig iprX down' an interface
 the system will crash always with:
 
 
 Fatal Trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
 fault virtual address   = 0x31727079
 fault code              = supervisor read, page not present
 instruction pointer     = 0x8:0xc017323d
 stack pointer           = 0x10:0xd1a58df4
 frame pointer           = 0x10:0xd1a58e00
 code segment            = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
                         = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
 precessor eflags        = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
 current process         = 32457 (ifconfig)
 interrupt mask          = net tty
 trap number             = 12
 panic: page fault
 
 syncing disks...
 done
 
 This is reproduceable. The crash will not occur when netgraph is not
 loaded / defined in kernel (but I need it for pppoed!).
 
 The system will crash too when the iprX-connection establishes
 (to old an current I4B-Versions and Suse-Linux).
 
 The system will always crash if you enter "ifconfig iprX ether x:x:x:x:x:x..."
 (it doesn't matter if netgraph is loaded or not in this case).
 
 These bugs where reproduced on a totally different 4.4R machine.
 These bugs didn't occur on 4.3R _or_ with the previous i4b-Release in -STABLE.
 
 >How-To-Repeat:
 - Install 4.4-Release
 - configure i4b
 - configure a ipr device in i4b
 - load netgraph (netgraph, netgraph-socket, netgraph-ether, netgraph-pppoe)
 - ifconfig iprX down to reproduce the crash
 - ifconfig iprX ether 1:2:3:4:5:6 to reproduce the crash
 >Fix:
 workaround: disable or unload netgraph
