Ido Schimmel c04f7dfe6e ipv6: Fix address dump when IPv6 is disabled on an interface
Cited commit started returning an error when user space requests to dump
the interface's IPv6 addresses and IPv6 is disabled on the interface.
Restore the previous behavior and do not return an error.

Before cited commit:

 # ip address show dev dummy1
 2: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 1a:52:02:5a:c2:6e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet6 fe80::1852:2ff:fe5a:c26e/64 scope link proto kernel_ll
        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
 # ip link set dev dummy1 mtu 1000
 # ip address show dev dummy1
 2: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1000 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 1a:52:02:5a:c2:6e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

After cited commit:

 # ip address show dev dummy1
 2: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 1e:9b:94:00:ac:e8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet6 fe80::1c9b:94ff:fe00:ace8/64 scope link proto kernel_ll
        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
 # ip link set dev dummy1 mtu 1000
 # ip address show dev dummy1
 RTNETLINK answers: No such device
 Dump terminated

With this patch:

 # ip address show dev dummy1
 2: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 42:35:fc:53:66:cf brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet6 fe80::4035:fcff:fe53:66cf/64 scope link proto kernel_ll
        valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
 # ip link set dev dummy1 mtu 1000
 # ip address show dev dummy1
 2: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1000 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 42:35:fc:53:66:cf brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
