45bb006090 ipv6: Remove IPV6_ADDR_RESERVED 
RFC 4291 section 2.4 states that all uncategorized addresses
should be considered as Global Unicast.

This will remove IPV6_ADDR_RESERVED completely
and return IPV6_ADDR_UNICAST in ipv6_addr_type() instead.

c61a7d10ef [IPV6]: ipv6_addr_type() doesn't know about RFC4193 addresses. 
ipv6_addr_type() doesn't check for 'Unique Local IPv6 Unicast
Addresses' (RFC4193) and returns IPV6_ADDR_RESERVED for that range.

SCTP uses this function and will fail bind() and connect() calls that
use RFC4193 addresses, SCTP will also ignore inbound connections from
RFC4193 addresses if listening on IPV6_ADDR_ANY.

There may be other users of ipv6_addr_type() that could also have
problems.

8c14b7ce22 [IPV6] ADDRCONF: Statically link __ipv6_addr_type() for sunrpc subsystem. 
Link __ipv6_addr_type() statically for sunrpc code even if IPv6 is
built as module.
