Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ipv6: add sysctl_mld_qrv to configure query robustness variable
This patch adds a new sysctl_mld_qrv knob to configure the mldv1/v2 query
robustness variable. It specifies how many retransmit of unsolicited mld
retransmit should happen. Admins might want to tune this on lossy links.
Also reset mld state on interface down/up, so we pick up new sysctl
settings during interface up event.
IPv6 certification requests this knob to be available.
I didn't make this knob netns specific, as it is mostly a setting in a
physical environment and should be per host.
