My current guess is that the panic occurs because of the newly added (r235745)
bpf_ifdetach which is an ifnet_departure_event handler.  My rc.conf is
configured to do interface renaming and SIOCSIFNAME seems to post
ifnet_departure_event followed by ifnet_arrival_event.

Not sure if it's a window between ifnet_departure_event and ifnet_arrival_event
when if_bpf is NULL, or if if_bpf is never restored in this case.
