IPv6: Fix multicast routing bugs.
This patch addresses the IPv6 multicast routing issues described below. It was tested with XORP 1.4/1.5 as the IPv6 PIM-SM routing daemon against FreeBSD peers. net/ipv6/ip6_input.c: - Don't try to forward link-local multicast packets. - Don't reset skb2->dev before calling ip6_mr_input() so packets can be identified as coming from the PIM register vif properly. net/ipv6/ip6mr.c: - Fix incoming PIM register messages processing: * The IPv6 pseudo-header should be included when checksumming PIM messages (RFC 4601 section 4.9; RFC 3973 section 4.7.1). * Packets decapsulated from PIM register messages should have skb->protocol ETH_P_IPV6. - Enable/disable IPv6 multicast forwarding on the corresponding interface when a routing daemon adds/removes a multicast virtual interface. - Remove incorrect skb_pull() to fix userspace signaling. - Enable/disable global IPv6 multicast forwarding when an IPv6 multicast routing socket is opened/closed. net/ipv6/route.c: - Don't use strict routing logic for packets decapsulated from PIM register messages (similar to disabling rp_filter for the IPv4 case).
