Anand Parthasarathy pointed out that draft-ietf-ipoib-ip-over-infiniband-09.txt says: [DISC] specifies the length of source/target option in number of 8-octets as indicated by a length of '3' above. Since the IPoIB link-layer address is only 20-octet long, two octets of zero MUST be prepended to fill the total option length of 24 octets. The current Linux neighbour discovery code puts the padding after the link address. This patch fixes up ndisc.c to put the padding in the correct place by adding a general ndisc_addr_option_pad() function (which could be used in the future if someone ever implements RFC 3831 IPv6-over-FC or some other encapsulation that requires padding).
