Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/2] net: ipv6: don't generate link local address on PUREIP device
Date:   Thu, 28 Jan 2021 13:58:09 +0800
Message-ID: <20210128055809.31199-1-rocco.yue@mediatek.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0

Precedence: bulk

PUREIP device such as ccmni does not need kernel to generate
link-local address in any addr_gen_mode, generally, it shall
use the IPv6 Interface Identifier, as provided by the GGSN,
to create its IPv6 link-ocal Unicast Address.
