[IPv6] link-local all-nodes ping broken

From: Bob Tracy

"ping6 -I eth0 ff02::1" worked fine for 2.6.20-rc3, with both Linux
systems on the link responding. Somewhere in either -rc4 or -rc5 this
quit working.

"tcpdump -i eth0 -l -n ip6" on the remote (same link) Linux system shows
the icmp6 echo request going out on the wire, but no one responds.

One host is running 2.6.20-rc4, the other -rc5. The results are the
same no matter which direction the test is run.
