> Subject: [RFCv3 bluetooth-next 3/4] ipv6: add ipv6_addr_prefix_copy
> 
> This patch adds a static inline function ipv6_addr_prefix_copy which copies a
> ipv6 address prefix(argument pfx) into the ipv6 address prefix.
> The prefix len is given by plen as bits. This function mainly based on
> ipv6_addr_prefix which copies one address prefix from address into a new
> ipv6 address destination and zero all other address bits.
> 
> The difference is that ipv6_addr_prefix_copy don't get a prefix from an
> ipv6 address, it sets a prefix to an ipv6 address with keeping other address
> bits. The use case is for context based address compression inside 6LoWPAN
> IPHC header which keeping ipv6 prefixes inside a context table to lookup
> address-bits without sending them.
