In the absence of a reply from Mahesh, I would be most grateful for
anyone familiar with the IPv6 code to review this 1-line fix.

Or if not, then I request that the commit f784ad3d79e5 is backed out,
as its intention is to remove the redundant but harmless RTM_DELADDR
for addresses in tentative state, but is also incorrectly removing the
very necessary RTM_DELADDR when an address is deleted that was previously
notified with an RTM_NEWADDR as being in tentative dadfailed state.
I've applied your patch, and queued it up for -stable, thanks.
