Subject: [PATCH] net: ipv6: Do not add multicast route for l3 master devices

L3 master devices are virtual devices similar to the loopback
device. Link local and multicast routes for these devices do
not make sense. The ipv6 addrconf code already skips adding a
linklocal address; do the same for the mcast route.
