Cover letter [PATCH net 0/2] gre: Revert IPv6 link-local address fix.

Following Paolo's suggestion, let's revert the IPv6 link-local address generation fix for GRE devices. The patch introduced regressions in the upstream CI, which are still under investigation.

Start by reverting the kselftest that depend on that fix (patch 1), then revert the kernel code itself (patch 2).
