core: let kernel add IPv6LL address when method=ignore (rh #1132938)

System Internals / NetworkManager - Dan Williams [redhat.com] - 21 October 2014 13:46 UTC

The IPv6LL address handling in userspace patches failed to handle the case where the IPv6 method was 'ignore'. Previously the kernel would usually add the IPv6LL address itself, but if NM has turned off kernel IPv6LL then obviously this wouldn't happen. So when the method is 'ignore', turn off userspace IPv6LL handling and bounce disable_ipv6 to make the kernel add the IPv6LL address if it wants to.
