Subject: ipv6: exit early in addrconf_notify() if IPv6 is disabled
X-Git-Tag: v5.15~17047^2~71

ipv6: exit early in addrconf_notify() if IPv6 is disabled

If IPv6 is explicitly disabled before the interface comes up,
it makes no sense to continue when it comes up, even just
print a message.

(I am not sure about other cases though, so I prefer not to touch)
