Hey Xufeng,

Normally I wouldn't go this deep into the detail but since you
referenced the Yocto bug and the Quagga discussion in the commit log and
the bug itself, I thought I'd try to understand what's going on here.
The last thing I saw from the Quagga maintainer is this:

   The ifp->connected list contains connected prefixes of a given
   interface. These exist regardless of particular routing protocols and
   emptying the list during ripd reconfiguration would be plain wrong. I
   allow for a chance there is a bug that is related to ifp->connected
   and SIGHUP handling at once, but not in this specific way.

and it looks like the patch here is the same as the one that the
maintainer indicated is "plain wrong".  Can you help me get some
confidence that this isn't going to have negative side-effects if we
integrate it?
