[PATCH 1/2] bridge: Fix MLD queries' ethernet source address

From: Linus Lüssing <hidden>
Date: 2011-02-17 18:18:06
Also in: bridge, lkml
Subsystem: ethernet bridge, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Nikolay Aleksandrov, Ido Schimmel, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Map the IPv6 header's destination multicast address to an ethernet
source address instead of the MLD queries multicast address.

For instance for a general MLD query (multicast address in the MLD query
set to ::), this would wrongly be mapped to 33:33:00:00:00:00, although
an MLD queries destination MAC should always be 33:33:00:00:00:01 which
matches the IPv6 header's multicast destination ff02::1.
