** Description changed:
+ SRU Justification

+ Impact:
+
2.6.32 has a problem with allocating IPv6 addresses that shows up using
later versions of libvirt, or if you create lots of IPv6 addresses
manually.
What happens is that 'ip addr show dev' for a particular device fails to
show the ipv6 addresses on them, yet they are there in the 'ifconfig'
listing for that device.
+
+ Fix:
+
+ A partial backport of upstream commit
+ 234b27c3fd58fc0e15c04dd0fbf4337fac9c2a06
+
+ Testcase:
+
+ See comment #7
