description:
Avoid if_dl and if_sadl to be NULL

Calling if_deactivate_sadl and then if_sadl_setrefs exposes NULL-ed if_dl
and if_sadl to users for a moment. It's harmful because users expect that
they're always non-NULL. Fix it.

Note that a race condition still remains; if_dl and if_sald aren't updated
atomically so a user can see different data from if_dl and if_sadl.
Fortunately none uses both if_dl and if_sadl at the same time, so the race
condition doesn't hurt nobody for now. (In the first place exposing one
data with two ways is problematic?)
