Set an additional flag IFF_NO_ADDRCONF to prevent ipv6 addrconf.

Commit 8a321cf7becc
("net: add IFF_NO_ADDRCONF and use it in bonding to prevent ipv6 addrconf")

This new flag change was not made to hv_netvsc resulting in the VF being
assinged an IPv6.

This line looks quite odd, it's in the middle of the commit message but
it's not a real sentence. If there's a single Fixes tag I usually refer
to it as "commit under Fixes", e.g. "Commit under Fixes changed XYZ but
it missed .." Please make this commit message read like a coherent
explanation rather than set of notes..
