[PATCH] team: set IFF_SLAVE on team ports

From: Jan Blunck
Date: Thu Jul 09 2015 - 05:59:07 EST


The code in net/ipv6/addrconf.c:addrconf_notify() tests for IFF_SLAVE to
decide if it should start the address configuration. Since team ports
shouldn't get link-local addresses assigned lets set IFF_SLAVE when linking
a port to the team master.
