  > Fix a panic in softclock() if the interface is destroyed with a bpf consumer
  > attached.
  >
  > This is caused by bpf_detachd clearing IFF_PROMISC on the interface which does
  > a SIOCSIFFLAGS ioctl. The problem here is that while the interface has been
  > stopped, IFF_UP has not been cleared so IFF_UP != IFF_DRV_RUNNING, this causes
  > the ioctl function to init() the interface which resets the callouts.
  >
  > The destroy then completes and frees the softc but softclock will panic on a
  > dead callout pointer.
  >
  > Ensure ifp->if_flags matches reality by clearing IFF_UP when we destroy.
