        IPv6 addrconf on IFF_SLAVE devices was disabled for bonding
slaves in commit c2edacf80e15 because it caused issues with snooping
switches.

        This is also referenced in

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=236750

        Won't re-enabling autoconf on IFF_SLAVE devices cause that issue
to return?
