ipv6: fix refcnt problem related to POSTDAD state
After running this bonding setup script modprobe bonding miimon=100 mode=0 max_bonds=1 ifconfig bond0 10.1.1.1/16 ifenslave bond0 eth1 ifenslave bond0 eth3 on s390 with qeth-driven slaves, modprobe -r fails with this message unregister_netdevice: waiting for bond0 to become free. Usage count = 1 due to twice detection of duplicate address. Problem is caused by a missing decrease of ifp->refcnt in addrconf_dad_failure. An extra call of in6_ifa_put(ifp) solves it. Problem has been introduced with commit f2344a131bccdbfc5338e17fa71a807dee7944fa. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ursula.braun@de.ibm.com> Cc: David S.
