Hello, networkers! Any opinions on the below change, that I made in the projects/pf branch?
Before the change we've got all ifnet arrival departure events called w/o locks held, as well as group change event. But the group arrival departure event handlers did hold locks. IMHO, after my change things get more consistent. Eventually I'd like to merge this to head. Any objections? Also, what I don't like, is that "group change" event is called always right after addition or deletion of a group, that is right after sending "group addition" or "group removal" event. Looks like an unneeded explicitness and tautology to me.

This should reduce lock contention as well.
