kernel: backport out-of-memory fix for non-Ethernet devices

Doing up & down on non-Ethernet devices (e.g. monitor mode interface)
was consuming memory.

+Subject: [PATCH] ipv6/addrconf: call ipv6_mc_up() for non-Ethernet interface
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Rafał found an issue that for non-Ethernet interface, if we down and up
+frequently, the memory will be consumed slowly.
+
+The reason is we add allnodes/allrouters addressed in multicast list in
+ipv6_add_dev(). When link down, we call ipv6_mc_down(), store all multicast
+addresses via mld_add_delrec(). But when link up, we don't call ipv6_mc_up()
+for non-Ethernet interface to remove the addresses. This makes idev->mc_tomb
+getting bigger and bigger. The call stack looks like:
+
+addrconf_notify(NETDEV_REGISTER)
+	ipv6_add_dev
+		ipv6_dev_mc_inc(ff01::1)
+		ipv6_dev_mc_inc(ff02::1)
+		ipv6_dev_mc_inc(ff02::2)
+
+addrconf_notify(NETDEV_UP)
+	addrconf_dev_config
+		/* Alas, we support only Ethernet autoconfiguration. */
+		return;
+
+addrconf_notify(NETDEV_DOWN)
+	addrconf_ifdown
+		ipv6_mc_down
+			igmp6_group_dropped(ff02::2)
+				mld_add_delrec(ff02::2)
+			igmp6_group_dropped(ff02::1)
+			igmp6_group_dropped(ff01::1)
+
+After investigating, I can't found a rule to disable multicast on
+non-Ethernet interface. In RFC2460, the link could be Ethernet, PPP, ATM,
+tunnels, etc. In IPv4, it doesn't check the dev type when calls ip_mc_up()
+in inetdev_event(). Even for IPv6, we don't check the dev type and call
+ipv6_add_dev(), ipv6_dev_mc_inc() after register device.
+
+So I think it's OK to fix this memory consumer by calling ipv6_mc_up() for
+non-Ethernet interface.
+
+v2: Also check IFF_MULTICAST flag to make sure the interface supports
+    multicast
