    net: bridge: remove ipv6 zero address check in mcast queries · c6819700
    Nikolay Aleksandrov 提交于
    commit 0fe5119e267f3e3d8ac206895f5922195ec55a8a upstream.
    
    Recently a check was added which prevents marking of routers with zero
    source address, but for IPv6 that cannot happen as the relevant RFCs
    actually forbid such packets:
    RFC 2710 (MLDv1):
    "To be valid, the Query message MUST
     come from a link-local IPv6 Source Address, be at least 24 octets
     long, and have a correct MLD checksum."
    
    Same goes for RFC 3810.
    
    And also it can be seen as a requirement in ipv6_mc_check_mld_query()
    which is used by the bridge to validate the message before processing
    it. Thus any queries with :: source address won't be processed anyway.
    So just remove the check for zero IPv6 source address from the query
    processing function.
    
    Fixes: 5a2de63fd1a5 ("bridge: do not add port to router list when receives query with source 0.0.0.0")
