Summary

Now it is possible to just merge all this complexity into single
linear function. Note that IFNET_WLOCK() is a sleepable lock, so
we can M_WAITOK and epoch_wait_preempt().

Do we still need these to be double pointers? We are not returning any of these values to a caller anymore.

sys/net/if.c
390–400

I think stylistically correct to keep them double pointers, since we allocate/free an array of pointers. And V_ifindex_table is of the same type and we assign V_ifindex_table to new, and assign old to V_ifindex_table.
