ipv6: addrconf: fix /proc/net/if_inet6
Commit 1d578303 (ipv6/addrconf: speedup /proc/net/if_inet6 filling) added bugs hiding some devices from if_inet6 and breaking applications. "ip -6 addr" could still display all IPv6 addresses, while "ifconfig -a" couldnt. One way to reproduce the bug is by starting in a shell : unshare -n /bin/bash ifconfig lo up And in original net namespace, lo device disappeared from if_inet6 Reported-by: Jan Hinnerk Stosch <janhinnerk.stosch@gmail.com> Tested-by: Jan Hinnerk Stosch <janhinnerk.stosch@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Mihai Maruseac <mihai.maruseac@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
