Commit f784ad3d ("ipv6: do not send RTM_DELADDR for tentative addresses") incorrectly assumes that no RTM_NEWADDR are sent for addresses in tentative state, as this does happen for the standard IPv6 use-case of DAD failure, see the call to ipv6_ifa_notify() in addconf_dad_stop(). So as a result of this change, no RTM_DELADDR is sent after DAD failure for a link-local when strict DAD (accept_dad=2) is configured, or on the next admin down in other cases. The absence of this notification breaks backwards compatibility and causes problems after DAD failure if this notification was being relied on. The solution is to allow RTM_DELADDR to still be sent after DAD failure.
