[PATCH 3.12 12/40] nfs: fix dead code of ipv6_addr_scope

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Wed Apr 02 2014 - 16:30:26 EST


From: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@xxxxxxxxx>

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

===============

commit a8c2275493b866961f4429a741251c630c4fc6d7 upstream.

The correct way to check on IPV6_ADDR_SCOPE_LINKLOCAL is to check with
the ipv6_addr_src_scope function.

Currently this can't be work, because ipv6_addr_scope returns a int with
a mask of IPV6_ADDR_SCOPE_MASK (0x00f0U) and IPV6_ADDR_SCOPE_LINKLOCAL
is 0x02. So the condition is always false.
