GRE devices have their special code for IPv6 link-local address generation that has been the source of several regressions in the past. Add selftest to check that all gre, ip6gre, gretap and ip6gretap get an IPv6 link-link local address in accordance with the net.ipv6.conf.<dev>.addr_gen_mode sysctl. Note: This patch was originally applied as commit6f50175cca("selftests: Add IPv6 link-local address generation tests for GRE devices."). However, it was then reverted by commit355d940f4d("Revert "selftests: Add IPv6 link-local address generation tests for GRE devices."") because the commit it depended on was going to be reverted. Now that the situation is resolved, we can add this selftest again (no changes since original patch, appart from context update in tools/testing/selftests/net/Makefile).
