From 746702eff1710c3ce9881b986180c8b41010344d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Ahern Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2016 13:44:18 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: ipv6: Do not add multicast route for l3 master devices L3 master devices are virtual devices similar to the loopback device. Link local and multicast routes for these devices do not make sense. The ipv6 addrconf code already skips adding a linklocal address; do the same for the mcast route.
