must be a pointer returned by net_instance_alloc(9F).
The net_instance_register() function attempts to record the set of
functions passed by instances that are to be called when an event
related to IP instance maintenance occurs.
If the net_instance_register() function succeeds, DDI_SUCCESS is
returned. Otherwise, DDI_FAILURE is returned to indicate failure due
to the name in the instance already being present.
The net_instance_register() function may be called from user or
kernel context.
