IPv6: Drop the temporary address regen_timer
The randomized interface identifier (rndid) was periodically updated from
the regen_timer timer. Simplify the code by updating the rndid only when
needed by ipv6_try_regen_rndid().
This makes the follow-up DESYNC_FACTOR fix much simpler. Also it fixes a
reference counting error in this error path, where an in6_dev_put was
missing:
err = addrconf_sysctl_register(ndev);
if (err) {
ipv6_mc_destroy_dev(ndev);
- del_timer(&ndev->regen_timer);
snmp6_unregister_dev(ndev);
goto err_release;
