The commit a2d3f3e33853 modifies the way to disable dad on an interface. Before the patch, setting <iface>.accept_dad to 0 was enough to disable it. Because all.accept_dad is set to 1 by default, after the patch, the user needs to set both all.accept_dad and <iface>.accept_dad to 0 to disable it.
This is not backward compatible. When a user updates its kernel, the dad may be enabled by error. Let's set all.accept_dad to 0 by default to restore the previous behavior.
