This should make trouble on phy's which have no address filter...

But when IPv6 Layer look on PACKET_BROADCAST then this is also another
bug...

I did a grep:

grep -r "PACKET_BROADCAST" net/IPv6

matches on:

net/ipv6/mcast.c:	    skb->pkt_type != PACKET_BROADCAST)

whatever this is, it's also fixed by this. Because we override always
this value with PACKET_HOST.

Don't look at me, it wasn't me which introduce the setting of
PACKET_HOST. :-)

I cc Jukka here, this is also setted in 6LoWPAN GENERIC, so bluetooth is
also affected into this.
