net: ipv6: Do not keep IPv6 addresses when IPv6 is disabled

Browse Source 
If IPv6 is disabled when the option is set to keep IPv6
addresses on link down, userspace is unaware of this as
there is no such indication via netlink. The solution is to
remove the IPv6 addresses in this case, which results in
netlink messages indicating removal of addresses in the
usual manner. This fix also makes the behavior consistent
with the case of having IPv6 disabled first, which stops
IPv6 addresses from being added.
