nd6 timers vs ticks

2016-05-30 Thread David Gwynne
llinfo_nd6 thinks its expiry may extend beyond a timeout interval. so it keeps track of the number of ticks it really wants via ln_ntick in llinfo_nd6 and schedules multiple timeouts to reach it. i think this is a waste of time for two reasons: 1. nd6_llinfo_settimer() (which sets this up)
