Subject: [PATCH iproute2] ip: print "temporary" for IPv6 temp addresses

From: Brian Haley <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2009 17:01:43 -0400

IPv6 addresses that have IFA_F_SECONDARY set are actually temporary addresses,
hence the IFA_F_TEMPORARY equivalent.  Change the output in this case and
allow filtering on the word "temporary".
