broken ping to ipv6 linklocal addresses on debian buster

I am seeing ping failures to IPv6 linklocal addresses with Debian
buster. Easiest example to reproduce is:

$ ping -c1 -w1 ff02::1%eth1
connect: Invalid argument

$ ping -c1 -w1 ff02::1%eth1
PING ff02::01%eth1(ff02::1%eth1) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from fe80::e0:f9ff:fe0c:37%eth1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.059 ms

git bisect traced the failure to
commit b9ef5513c9 ("smack: Check address length before reading address family")

Arguably ping is being stupid since the buster version is not setting
the address family properly (ping on stretch for example does):

$ strace -e connect ping6 -c1 -w1 ff02::1%eth1
connect(5, {sa_family=AF_UNSPEC,
sa_data="\4\1\0\0\0\0\377\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\1\3\0\0\0"}, 28)
= -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

but the command works fine on kernels prior to this commit, so this is
breakage which goes against the Linux paradigm of "don't break userspace"
