ipv6: Fix incorrect disable_ipv6 behavior
Fix the behavior of allowing both sysctl and addrconf_dad_failure() to set the disable_ipv6 parameter without any bad side-effects. If DAD fails and accept_dad > 1, we will still set disable_ipv6=1, but then instead of allowing an RA to add an address then immediately fail DAD, we simply don't allow the address to be added in the first place. This also lets the user set this flag and disable all IPv6 addresses on the interface, or on the entire system. Signed-off-by: Brian Haley <brian.haley@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
