3.19.8-ckt5 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Angga <Hermin.Anggawijaya at alliedtelesis.co.nz>

commit 4c938d22c88a9ddccc8c55a85e0430e9c62b1ac5 upstream.

Before commit daad151263cf ("ipv6: Make ipv6_is_mld() inline and use it
from ip6_mc_input().") MLD packets were only processed locally. After the
change, a copy of MLD packet goes through ip6_mr_input, causing
MRT6MSG_NOCACHE message to be generated to user space.

Make MLD packet only processed locally.

Fixes: daad151263cf ("ipv6: Make ipv6_is_mld() inline and use it from ip6_mc_input().")
