network: drop fallback mechanism to assign DHCPv6 addresses with IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE

The flag IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE was introduced in kernel-3.14. But even if
the kernel does not support the flag, it should be just ignored. So, it
is not necessary to do the fallback logic. Moreover, the current logic
is not a fallback mechanism but just retrying. So, it should not work.
Let's drop that.
