Log:
  poib: assign link-local address according to RFC
  
  RFC 4391 specifies that the IB interface GID should be re-used as IPv6
  link-local address.  Since the code in in6_get_hw_ifid() ignored
  IFT_INFINIBAND case, ibX interfaces ended up with the local address
  borrowed from some other interface, which is non-compliant.
  
  Use lowest eight bytes from GID for filling the link-local address,
  same as Linux.
