Subject: [PATCH] Freeing alive inet6 address

From: Denis V. Lunev <den@...nvz.org>

addrconf_dad_failure calls addrconf_dad_stop which takes referenced address
and drops the count. So, in6_ifa_put perrformed at out: is extra. This
results in message: "Freeing alive inet6 address" and not released dst entries.
