2.6.22-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.
------------------
From: Mitsuru Chinen <[email protected]>
changeset 0fcace22d38ce9216f5ba52f929a99d284aa7e49 from mainline
To judge the timing for DAD, netif_carrier_ok() is used. However,
there is a possibility that dev->qdisc stays noop_qdisc even if
netif_carrier_ok() returns true. In that case, DAD NS is not sent out.
We need to defer the IPv6 device initialization until a valid qdisc
is specified.
