Looks more like the IPV6 SNMP6 OOPS, I saw and fixed with:

commit 5632c5152aa621885d87ea0b8fdd5a6bb9f69c6f

    [IPV6]: Track device renames in snmp6.
    
    When network device's are renamed, the IPV6 snmp6 code
    gets confused. It doesn't track name changes so it will OOPS
    when network device's are removed.
    
    The fix is trivial, just unregister/re-register in notify handler.
