Yes, the crash happens in ctrl_dumpfamily() which is not related
to the ipvs interface at all. I'm not familar with the new ipvadm
tool yet and whether it dumps the controller table but even if
does, this smells like a ipvs dump is being continued by calling
the wrong cb function. I have a similar report which may be related.
