Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next] net: ipv6: avoid accepting values greater than 2 for accept_untracked_na

The accept_untracked_na sysctl changed from a boolean to an integer
when a new knob '2' was added. This patch provides a safeguard to avoid
accepting values that are not defined in the sysctl. When setting a
value greater than 2, the user will get an 'invalid argument' warning.
