Hi,

I had submitted a PR for a panic caused by Open vSwitch a while back:

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213015

It looks to be due to traffic being sent while a tap interface is
being renamed, during which if_bpf in the ifnet is set to null. The
following patch does stop the panic (it's also been added to the PR).
I see similar checks in some other departure handlers like lagg and
vxlan - so I'm wondering if this would be a sensible check here.
Thanks.
