Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] IPV6: remove addresses and routes when carrier is
 lost

Similar to previous change for IPV4. Allow configuration option to remove
addresses from FIB when carrier is lost.

This patch also makes IPV6 ignore changes to carrier state when device
is admin down state. This prevents address configuration from starting
up on a buggy device driver that signals carrier changes when offline.
