[PATCH] IPV6: fix source address selection

The commit 95c385 broke proper source address selection for cases in which 
there is a address which is makred 'deprecated'. The commit mistakenly 
changed ifa->flags to ifa_result->flags (probably copy/paste error from a 
few lines above) in the 'Rule 3' address selection code.

The patch below restores the previous RFC-compliant behavior, please 
apply.
