This one should probably be a pr_debug or counter.  This is not a
critical issue and it makes no sense to spam the log if IPv6 is not
supported on a particular interface.

This shouldn't be a warning either.  This is called if
ipv6_generate_eui64() fails and we'd know if it failed for a good
reason.  If that failed, we very likely do not have any other link-local
addresses and would know of any error conditions.

If by some chance, there are unsolicited RAs on the link, you'd end up
spamming the log.
