Fix anycast procfs device leak
[IPV6]: /proc/net/anycast6 unbalanced inet6_dev refcnt From: David Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com> Reading /proc/net/anycast6 when there is no anycast address on an interface results in an ever-increasing inet6_dev reference count, as well as a reference to the netdevice you can't get rid of.
