Re: [PATCH net-next] net: ipv6: Generate random IID for addresses on RAWIP devices

RAWIP devices such as rmnet do not have a hardware address and
instead require the kernel to generate a random IID for the
temporary addresses. For permanent addresses, the device IID is
used along with prefix received.
