Hi, I'm running into a problem with lladdr pinging all-host mcast all nodes addr. The ping intially works but after cycling the interface that receives the ping, the echo request packet causes a neigh solicitation being sent on a different interface.
To repro, I included the attached namespace scripts. This is the
topology and an output of my test.

Initially ping is replied by r0_v00:
$ sudo ip netns exec h0 ping -c 1 ff02::1%h0_v00
PING ff02::1%h0_v00(ff02::1%h0_v00) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from fe80::a89d:a5ff:fecf:ab75%h0_v00: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=4.44 ms

1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 4.443/4.443/4.443/0.000 ms
Cycle r0_v00. Ping isn't replied and the tcpdump shows that the NS for h0_v00
lladdr
is sent over r0_v01:
$ sudo ip netns exec r0 ip link set r0_v00 down
$ sudo ip netns exec r0 ip link set r0_v00 up
$ sudo ip netns exec r0 ip addr show dev r0_v00

I'm thinking that the following patch is needed:
diff --git a/drivers/net/vrf.c b/drivers/net/vrf.c

But wanting to probe first to see if I could have missed something. Or
is there a better patch. I would be happy to follow up with a formal patch.
Thank you,
Stephen.
