Jinmei,

Sorry, I don't consider your example as valid because there is at least one 
step in your example's sequence of events that is invalid.  That step is 
mentioned below in quotes

"- Y sends an NS to P::X without link-layer source address option, with
  the source address being P::Y."

According to RFC 4861, a mcast NS MUST include the src link-layer option. So if 
the NS in your example was a mcast NS with no source link-layer option, then 
the NS is invalid.  Further, if your NS is a unicast NS which is a NUD message, 
then the L2 link-layer address of Y is available to X when X receives the 
unicast NUD message.
