[ Upstream commit 2e60546368165c2449564d71f6005dda9205b5fb ]

Avoid the situation where an IPV6 only flag is applied to an IPv4 address:

    # ip addr add 192.0.2.1/24 dev dummy0 nodad home mngtmpaddr noprefixroute
    # ip -4 addr show dev dummy0
    2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
        inet 192.0.2.1/24 scope global noprefixroute dummy0
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

Or worse, by sending a malicious netlink command:

    # ip -4 addr show dev dummy0
    2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
        inet 192.0.2.1/24 scope global nodad optimistic dadfailed home tentative mngtmpaddr noprefixroute stable-privacy dummy0
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
