Description (partial) 

Symptom:
"ifmgr" crashes when attempting to unbind a non-existing port from a VDC.

Conditions:
A line card must be misreporting how many ports it has. Eg: a 32 port card reporting it has 48 ports, as seen in "show vdc internal port-hash".  These non-existent ports may be bound to VDC1 by default. It's unknown at present how a card would get into this state.

`show vdc internal port-hash`
Interface   If_index      Vdc_id
---------   --------      ------
(snip)
Eth1/33     XXXXXXXX      1
. . .
Eth1/48     XXXXXXXX      1

Note: If the above output is seen and slot 1 is a 32 port card, this is obviously abnormal. If it was a 48 port card, this is expected. The bug is triggered in the former case.
