This patch builds off of commit 2b246b2569
and adds functionality to respond to ICMPV6 PROBE requests.
Add icmp_build_probe function to construct PROBE requests for both
ICMPV4 and ICMPV6.
Modify icmpv6_rcv to detect ICMPV6 PROBE messages and call the
icmpv6_echo_reply handler.
Modify icmpv6_echo_reply to build a PROBE response message based on the
queried interface.
This patch has been tested using a branch of the iputils git repo which can
be found here: https://github.com/Juniper-Clinic-2020/iputils/tree/probe-request

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
