melifaro 6ee59753ec Further rework netinet6 address handling code:
* Set ia address/mask values BEFORE attaching to address lists.
Inet6 address assignment is not atomic, so the simplest way to
do this atomically is to fill in ia before attach.
* Validate irfa->ia_addr field before use (we permit ANY sockaddr in old code).
* Do some renamings:
  in6_ifinit -> in6_notify_ifa (interaction with other subsystems is here)
  in6_setup_ifa -> in6_broadcast_ifa (LLE/Multicast/DaD code)
  in6_ifaddloop -> nd6_add_ifa_lle
  in6_ifremloop -> nd6_rem_ifa_lle
* Split working with LLE and route announce code for last two.
Add temporary in6_newaddrmsg() function to mimic current rtsock behaviour.
* Call device SIOCSIFADDR handler IFF we're adding first address.
In IPv4 we have to call it on every address change since ARP record
is installed by arp_ifinit() which is called by given handler.
IPv6 stack, on the opposite is responsible to call nd6_add_ifa_lle() so
there is no reason to call SIOCSIFADDR often.
