From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Mar 16 2012 - 19:38:45 EST


3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


From: Ulrich Weber <ulrich.weber@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d1d81d4c3dd886d5fa25a2c4fa1e39cb89613712 ]

otherwise source IPv6 address of ICMPV6_MGM_QUERY packet
might be random junk if IPv6 is disabled on interface or
link-local address is not yet ready (DAD).
