This will not cause any issue normally. But the race between addrconf_dad_failure() and addrconf_dad_work() may cause ifp refcount leak and netdevice can not be unregister, dmesg show the following messages: IPv6: eth0: IPv6 duplicate address fe80::XX:XXXX:XXXX:XX detected! ... unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free.
