H A Daddrconf.cdiff 9908104935325bd6beba67d637b6f5396d47075c Wed Feb 08 18:10:53 CST 2006 Kristian Slavov <kristian.slavov@nomadiclab.com> [IPV6]: Address autoconfiguration does not work after device down/up cycle

If you set network interface down and up again, the IPv6 address
autoconfiguration does not work. 'ip addr' shows that the link-local
address is in tentative state. We don't even react to periodical router
advertisements.

During NETDEV_DOWN we clear IF_READY, and we don't set it back in
NETDEV_UP. While starting to perform DAD on the link-local address, we
notice that the device is not in IF_READY, and we abort autoconfiguration
process (which would eventually send router solicitations).
