ipv6 addrconf: fix preferred lifetime state-changing behavior while valid_lft is infinity Fixed a problem with setting the lifetime of an IPv6 address. When setting preferred_lft to a value not zero or infinity, while valid_lft is infinity(0xffffffff) preferred lifetime is set to forever and does not update. Therefore preferred lifetime never becomes deprecated. valid lifetime and preferred lifetime should be set independently, even if valid lifetime is infinity, preferred lifetime must expire correctly (meaning it must eventually become deprecated) Signed-off-by: Yasushi Asano <yasushi.asano@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
