The description here isn't quite accurate -- you implement the right thing (turn on only if set to yes) rather than the almost right thing (turn off only if not set to yes) as suggested in the commit message. The distinction being the kernel default in the event that the boot scripts haven't run -- i.e., in single-user mode. We might want to find somewhere to document that if you're in single-user mode, you need to set this sysctl to 1 in order to force a link local address to be enabled.
