From cdf64c803e6cfec72259f7bb2654261584bb80a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2011 14:52:43 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] skge: don't mark carrier down at start The API for network devices has changed so that setting carrier off at probe is no longer required. This should fix the IPv6 addrconf issue.
