Subject: [IPV6]: Do not set IF_READY if device is down
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.21-rc4~99^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c7ababbdc647e67e953d153ddf62cbdc9fe3297e;p=linux-2.6

[IPV6]: Do not set IF_READY if device is down

Now that we add the IPv6 device at registration time we don't need
to set IF_READY in ipv6_add_dev anymore because we will always get
a NETDEV_UP event later on should the device ever become ready.
