[IPV6]: anycast refcnt fix
This patch fixes a bug in Linux IPv6 stack which caused anycast address to be added to a device prior DAD has been completed. This led to incorrect reference count which resulted in infinite wait for unregister_netdevice completion on interface removal. Signed-off-by: Michal Wrobel <xmxwx@asn.pl> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
