Alexey Kuznetsov 3e7e81d9e8 inet6: prevent network storms caused by linux IPv6 routers 
[ Upstream commit 72b43d0898e97f588293b4a24b33c58c46633d81 ]

Linux IPv6 forwards unicast packets, which are link layer multicasts...
The hole was present since day one. I was 100% this check is there, but it is not.

The problem shows itself, f.e. when Microsoft Network Load Balancer runs on a network.
This software resolves IPv6 unicast addresses to multicast MAC addresses.
