SRU Justification:

Impact: IPV6 temporary addresses won't work if two prefixes are
advertised on a link with one having a preferred_lifetime of 0 (usually
the case after a re-numbering).

The patch attached is from two relatively straight forward two upstream
cherry picks (originally davem/net-2.6.git and recently Linux
2.6.25-rc9) back ported to 2.6.24.

TEST CASE: See Bug Description
