This patch remove the packet_type to host and leave the mac pkt_type. By running 'grep -r "pkt_type" net/ipv6', the IPv6 stack will evaluate this value for PACKET_BROADCAST. Instead of overwriting this value we will leave the mac value there which is broadcasts if the mac frame was a broadcast frame.
