KGDB shows this as the spot where it panics:

(kgdb) list /usr/src/sys/netinet6/icmp6.c:2129
2124                            src6 =3D ia->ia_addr.sin6_addr;
2125                            srcp =3D &src6;
2126
2127                            if (m->m_pkthdr.rcvif !=3D NULL) {
2128                                    /* XXX: This may not be the outgoin=
g interface */
2129                                    hlim =3D ND_IFINFO(m->m_pkthdr.rcvi=
f)->chlim;
2130                            } else
2131                                    hlim =3D V_ip6_defhlim;
2132                    }
2133                    if (ia !=3D NULL)

It looks like a received packet ends up with the stale IFP pointer...
