ipv6: Ignore route option with ROUTER_PREF_INVALID
RFC4191 says that "If the Reserved (10) value is received, the Route Information Option MUST be ignored.", so this patch makes us conform to the RFC. This is different to the usage of the Default Router Preference, where an invalid value must indeed be treated as PREF_MEDIUM. Signed-off-by: Jens Rosenboom <me@jayr.de> Signed-off-by: David S.
