commit 3b0dc529f56b5f2328244130683210be98f16f7f upstream. When routes corresponding to addresses are restored by fixup_permanent_addr(), the dst_nopolicy parameter was not set. The typical use case is a user that configures an address on a down interface and then put this interface up. Let's take care of this flag in addrconf_f6i_alloc(), so that every callers benefit ont it.

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.
