Does "DAD optimization" include the validity check of previous 
IP address on a new link? IMO, we had better confine "DAD 
optimization" only to the matter reducing the delay time.

We should not be confused between "the validity check of
previous IP address on new link" and "the reduction of 
delay incurred by duplicate address detection", although the
two schemes help send and receive packets immediately after
network attachment.
