Maxim Mikityanskiy 7dc2bccab0 Validate required parameters in inet6_validate_link_af
inet6_set_link_af requires that at least one of IFLA_INET6_TOKEN or
IFLA_INET6_ADDR_GET_MODE is passed. If none of them is passed, it
returns -EINVAL, which may cause do_setlink() to fail in the middle of
processing other commands and give the following warning message:

  A link change request failed with some changes committed already.
  Interface eth0 may have been left with an inconsistent configuration,
  please check.

Check the presence of at least one of them in inet6_validate_link_af to
detect invalid parameters at an early stage, before do_setlink does
anything. Also validate the address generation mode at an early stage.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
