Log from 11-CURRENT

The ndp utility report wrong MAC addresses on 11-CURRENT snapshot from 2016-03-08.

On the same machine:
10.2:
root@u0824:~ # ndp -na
Neighbor                             Linklayer Address  Netif Expire    S Flags
fe80::e2db:55ff:fefd:3045%igb0       e0:db:55:fd:30:45   igb0 permanent R

11.0:
root@u0824:~ # ndp -an
Neighbor                             Linklayer Address  Netif Expire    S Flags
fe80::e2db:55ff:fefd:3045%igb0       20:f0:66:26:00:f8   igb0 permanent R

Full logs are attached.

Isolation notes:
- Wrong MACs reported for local and remote hosts
- Tested on igb and ixl drivers
- IPv4 stack (arp utility) is not affected
- Despite the wrong MAC addresses are reported, IPv6 traffic is working OK
