Hello!
I have polished the patch and it did get further testing.
I've been asked to get one more approval from someone more knowledgeable
about the IPv6 stack before being able to commit this code.
It works fine and I'd like to commit it soon so it can get proper
testing and avoid rotting as a patch.
Since I am not src committer I'll need explicit approval to commit to
the src tree.
Thanks in advance!

Hi!
I have recently implemented and tested the patch at [1], which
implements RFC 7217, about generating IPv6 addresses that are constant
through reboots, but do not expose the MAC address of the machine, not
being in any way derived by those.
I'd like to get comments, testing and review for this patch, with the
objective of getting approval to commit it to head once it is
streamlined enough.
BTW I'd like to thank cognet for his suggestions and help with the
patch, in particular his help in finding the correct way to implement
the dad_failures counter.
And thanks in advance to anyone willing to give feedback!
