I don't see any language in the RFC that says that. The closest thing
I see is:
Thus, the IPoIB link is formed by the IPoIB nodes joining the
broadcast group.
but that is far from a definitive statement. And I would like to make
sure that this patch doesn't break anything. Can you convince me that
this won't break IPv6 DAD for autoconfiguration?
