Here is a simplified version of the patch to fix a bug in IPv6
multicasting. It:

1) adds existence check &amp; EADDRINUSE error for regular joins
2) adds an exception for EADDRINUSE in the source-specific multicast
        join (where a prior join is ok)
3) adds a missing/needed read_lock on sock_mc_list; would've raced
        with destroying the socket on interface down without
4) adds a "leave group" in the (INCLUDE, empty) source filter case.
        This frees unneeded socket buffer memory, but also prevents
        an inappropriate interaction among the 8 socket options that
        mess with this. Some would fail as if in the group when you
        aren't really.

Item #4 had a locking bug in the last version of this patch; rather than
removing the idev-&gt;lock read lock only, I've simplified it to remove
all lock state in the path and treat it as a direct "leave group" call for
the (INCLUDE,empty) case it covers. Tested on an MP machine. :-)

Much thanks to HoerdtMickael &lt;hoerdt@clarinet.u-strasbg.fr&gt; who
reported the original bug.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
