[MEXT] De-resgistering bindings in MCoA draft

[Hesham Soliman <hesham at elevatemobile.com>]

Hi, 

I have a comment on this aspect of the spec. The removal of BIDs based on
zero lifetime is completely inconsistent with the processing of the BU in
MIPv6. The lifetime should be for the entire binding cache for the home
address. BIDs should be removed by explicitly by requesting a removal
operation in the BID fields (or by simply excluding them from the new BU),
not by giving them separate lifetimes. I don't see any reason for
complicating things this way. This is not how a binding update is supposed
to work. The way it works is that one BU replaces the previous one.

Hesham
