[parisc-linux] IPv6 on PA-RISC up and running :-)

[Jochen Friedrich]

Hi,

With a short patch (disabling a not-working checksum method and using a 
portable C version instead), i got IPv6 
up and running on my 720:

[root@alpha root]# ping6 3ffe:400:470:4:a00:9ff:fe17:ca3d
PING 3ffe:400:470:4:a00:9ff:fe17:ca3d(3ffe:400:470:4:a00:9ff:fe17:ca3d) from 3ffe:400:470:4::1 : 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 3ffe:400:470:4:a00:9ff:fe17:ca3d: icmp_seq=0 hops=64 time=2.391 msec
64 bytes from 3ffe:400:470:4:a00:9ff:fe17:ca3d: icmp_seq=1 hops=64 time=780 usec

Cheers,
Jochen
