/* From RFC4861, page 72, last paragraph of section 7.3.3:
*
* "In some cases, link-specific information may indicate that a path to
* a neighbor has failed (e.g., the resetting of a virtual circuit). In
* such cases, link-specific information may be used to purge Neighbor
* Cache entries before the Neighbor Unreachability Detection would do
* so. However, link-specific information MUST NOT be used to confirm
* the reachability of a neighbor; such information does not provide
* end-to-end confirmation between neighboring IP layers."
*
* However, we assume that receiving a link layer ack ensures the delivery
* of the transmitted packed to the IP stack of the neighbour. This is a
* fair assumption and allows battery powered nodes save some battery by
* not re-testing the state of a neighbour periodically if it
* acknowledges link packets. */
