net: ipv6: Do not add multicast route for l3 master devices

David Ahern · davem330 · commit ba46ee4c0ed1 · 2016-06-15T12:34:34.000-07:00
L3 master devices are virtual devices similar to the loopback
device. Link local and multicast routes for these devices do
not make sense. The ipv6 addrconf code already skips adding a
linklocal address; do the same for the mcast route.
