* [PATCH] ipv6: Reparent temporary address(es) if global address was deleted from userspace

If the kernel takes care of global and temporary addresses it can happen that the global
address is deleted from userspace, e.g. by network managers in case the link goes (temporarily) down.
In addition to the then orphaned temporary address(es) the next RA will create a new temporary address.
Therefore we might end up with more than one non-deprecated temporary address for the same prefix
for a longer period of time (>regen_advance). According to RfC 4941 sect. 3.4 this should not happen.

Fix this by reparenting orphaned temporary addresses.

Nit: your commit description should only be ~75 chars wide max

You can collapse initialization where you declare the variable.

The pr_info() should ideally be removed (or at least made pr_debug()).
