[ Upstream commit 2a83891130512dafb321418a8e7c9c09268d8c59 ]
IPV6 addresses are purged when setting the number of rx/tx
rings using ethtool -G. The function aq_set_ringparam
calls dev_close, which removes the addresses. As a solution,
call an internal function (aq_ndev_close).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
