mainlining shenanigans

Every address gets added with TENTATIVE flag even for the addresses with IFA_F_NODAD flag and dad-work is scheduled for them. During this DAD process we realize it's an address with NODAD and complete the process without sending any probe. However the TENTATIVE flags stays on the address for sometime enough to cause misinterpretation when we receive a NS. While processing NS, if the address has TENTATIVE flag, we mark it DADFAILED and endup with an address that was originally configured as NODAD with DADFAILED. We can't avoid scheduling dad_work for addresses with NODAD but we can avoid adding TENTATIVE flag to avoid this racy situation.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
