Subject: [PATCH iproute2 v2 0/3] do not set IPv6-only options on IPv4 addresses

'home', 'nodad' and 'mngtmpaddr' options are IPv6-only, but
it is possible to set them on IPv4 addresses, too. This should
not be possible.

Fix this adding a check on the protocol family before setting
the flags, and print warning messages on error to not break
existing scripted setups.

Andrea Claudi (3):
  ip address: do not set nodad option for IPv4 addresses
  ip address: do not set home option for IPv4 addresses
  ip address: do not set mngtmpaddr option for IPv4 addresses
