LMA relocation while preserving the IP address for the mobile node is
something that is not supported even in RFC 5213. So can you describe the
above scenario in more detail?

If this is a failover case where another LMA takes over for a failed LMA,
and the state is synced between the two, this change should not even be
visible to the MAG or the MN. All the mobility sessions continue as is.
