To reduce the number of unnecessary router solicitations, MLDv2 and IGMPv3 messages we need to track the number of valid (as in non-optimistic, no-dad-failed and non-tentative) link-local addresses. Therefore, this patch implements a valid_ll_addr_cnt in struct inet6_dev. We now only emit router solicitations if the first link-local address finishes duplicate address detection. The changes for MLDv2 and IGMPv3 are in a follow-up patch. While there, also simplify one if statement(one minor nit I made in one of my previous patches): if (!...) do(); else return; <<into>> if (...) return; do(); Cc: Flavio Leitner <fbl@redhat.com> Cc: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Cc: David Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com> Suggested-by: David Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Acked-by: Flavio Leitner <fbl@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
