H> You can ref the ifp before the EPOCH exit?

Sure. The code should use ifnet_byindex_ref().

Note that d74b7baeb0d4 was a sweep commit to "cover" all
unsafe uses of ifnet_byindex().  It was not my intent to
fix all of them, but rather mark them with a comment
and put NET_EPOCH_ASSERT() inside ifnet_byindex() to prevent
future unsafe calls.
