Switch VNETs when injecting mbufs into netgraph

Good catch, thanks!  However, the culprit here is not ng_bridge, but ng_eiface,
whic may be on lease to another vnet, while it remains bonded to its origin
vnet on the netgraph layer.  In such circumstances, when injecting mbufs into
netgraph, ng_eiface should switch curvnet to that of the netgraph layer, which
it fails to.  For the problem at hand, the attached patch would be a more
accurate fix, since it cures the cause, not the symptom.
