We can argue, even if the MN releases the address, the LMA should
keep a floating BCE, or it can cleanup the state. The point is the
need for the PMIP and DHCP entities aware of all transactions,
ensuring the address that the MN requests is the same as what it
obtained PMIP or being aware of MN releasing its address, or about
extending lifetimes for the MAG to ensure the PMIP tunnel life is
valid for the DHCP state.
