Same remark as for the previous patch, please spell out those option names. 
Nobody will be able to guess what a "maddradv" is. It is not a widely used 
acronym and it is not similar to the native 
"management-addresses-advertisements" setting name.

Also there's an existing option "lldp_mgmt_ip" and I guess this new option 
controls whether it is advertised in TLVs or not, so it should follow its 
naming, something like "lldp_mgmt_ip_advertisement" or similar.
