Issue: The problem is that there is a race condition introduced in that the LWIP thread is relying on the
interface as it is taken down by a application thread while calling disconnect.
In disconnect api called from application context, whd_emac_wifi_link_state_changed() will refer to netif interface
structure in its callback api netif_link_irq(netif). This netif will be cleared by remove_etherent_interface().
whd_emac_wifi_link_state_changed will post message to tcpip_thread. tcpip_thread will process the message and
call the callback api netif_link_irq(netif)
Calling sequence is whd_emac_wifi_link_state_changed -> remove_etherent_interface(). Hence there is a timing issue
that netif might be cleared first before tcpip thread process the message netif_link_irq(netif)
Fix: remove_etherent_interface() will post message to tcpip thread and tcpip thread process the message delete_interface()
which will actually remove the inferface from the netif_list.
Calling sequence is whd_emac_wifi_link_state_changed() message post -> remove_etherent_interface() message post.
message processing order netif_link_irq(netif) -> delete_interface().
Since both the processing is handled in single thread, processing of message is handled sequentially.
Issue: udp_sendto() Fails for multicast IPV6 packet when interface is switched from SoftAP to STA mode.
When SoftAP start is called, add_ethernet_interface() will be called internally to add interface details into netif_list.
When switching from SoftAP to STA mode, add_ethernet_interface() will be called again to append the interace details into netif_list.
When udp_sendto() is called, ip6_route() will return interface as NULL since it consider device as single interface.
Fix: SoftAP mode Stop, call remove_ethernet_interface() to remove the interface from the netif_list.
