Bug ID: 270859
Summary: dmesg message: mce0: a looped back NS message is
detected during DAD
Product: Base System
Version: 13.2-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: kern

When I am using the mce driver with srv-io enabled I get the following message:
mce0: a looped back NS message is detected during DAD for
fe80:2::2c79:38ff:fe0d:f9e. Another DAD probes are being sent.
wich is repeated until I am using the command line :
sudo sysctl net.inet6.ip6.dad_count=0
While the work around work I would really prefer to kepp this dupicate address
check. Is there anything that can be done?
Looking at the dmesg log I can see it is happening when the interface goes
first down then up:
```
mlx5_core0: <mlx5_core> mem 0xc0000000-0xc00fffff at device 2.0 on pci0
mlx5: Mellanox Core driver 3.7.1 (November 2021)mlx5_core0: WARN:

mce0: link state changed to DOWN

lo0: link state changed to UP

```
or another type of message:
```
mce0: Ethernet address: 9c:dc:71:4c:84:f0
mce0: link state changed to DOWN
mce1: Ethernet address: 9c:dc:71:4c:84:f1

mce0: link state changed to UP
mce0: a looped back NS message is detected during DAD for
fe80:4::9edc:71ff:fe4c:84f0. Another DAD probes are being sent.
```
rc.conf is pretty straightforward for now:
```
hostname="myhost.domain.tld"
keymap="fr.macbook.kbd"
ifconfig_mce0="mtu 9000 up"
ifconfig_mce0_ipv6="inet6 .../64"
ipv6_defaultrouter="...::1"
sshd_enable="YES"
ntpd_enable="YES"
# Set dumpdev to "AUTO" to enable crash dumps, "NO" to disable
dumpdev="AUTO"
zfs_enable="YES"
bastille_enable="YES"
iovctl_files="/etc/iov/mce0.conf"
vm_enable="YES"
vm_dir="zfs:zdata/vms"
```
Some google research shows thatthis error is triggered when two ifconfig
command on the interface are done quickly one after the other:

I'm using updated HPE rebranded card (so with their firmware)
