Bug 1445861

https://github.com/ClusterLabs/resource-agents/pull/968

So this is what we did to test it for OSP:
A) On an OSP deployment with IPv6 *without* the patch:
Created a bunch of VIPs with /128 netmask and observed that they all got created (so only by setting ip, nic and netmask) and that they show up in ip -6 addr like this (note the "preferred_lft forever"):
    inet6 fd00:fd00:fd00:2000::9/128 scope global
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever


B) On an OSP deployment with IPv6 *with* the patch:
Created a bunch of VIPs with /128 netmask and observed that they all got created (so only by setting ip, nic and netmask) and that they show up in ip -6 addr like this (note the "preferred_lft forever"):
    inet6 fd00:fd00:fd00:2000::9/128 scope global
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

A) and B) are identical but we wanted to verify that the patch did not introduce any regression.

C) On an OSP deployment with IPv6 *with* the patch:
Created a bunch of VIPs with /128 netmask and observed that they all got created (so by setting ip, nic, netmask *and* preferred_lft=0) and that they show up in ip -6 addr like this (note the "preferred_lft 0sec and the deprecated"):
    inet6 fd00:fd00:fd00:4000::9/128 scope global deprecated 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft 0sec


Then we tried moving the VIPs around a few times and also observed no regression there. We also could confirm that no service (we checked both galera and rabbit) would bind to the VIP as a source address when creating inter-cluster communication sockers.

I have verified that new option 'prefered_lft' changes the appropriate value of
the ethernet interface with resource-agents-3.9.5-97.el7.x86_64.
