There is no ccmni driver in the tree - is this for non-upstream
driver?  
ccmni is the name of MediaTek mobile interface, currently, it is
non-upstream driver and we plan to upstream these driver codes this
year.

Honestly, the reason why upstreamed this patch is not only that it can
be used by ccmni, but also I observed that the current Linux kernel does
not generate ipv6 link-local address only when addr_gen_mode ==
IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_NONE. We hope kernel can add a device type so that no
ipv6 link-local address can be generated in any addr_gen_mode.  
gentle ping for this patch set.
We don't merge patches without upstream users.
Hi Jakub,

Thanks for your reply.
We will prepare and upstream MediaTek mobile device code asap.

Best Regards,
Rocco
