ipv6/addrconf: fix a null-ptr-deref bug for ip6_ptr
[ Upstream commit 85f0173df35e5462d89947135a6a5599c6c3ef6f ]
Change net device's MTU to smaller than IPV6_MIN_MTU or unregister
device while matching route. That may trigger null-ptr-deref bug
for ip6_ptr probability as following.

Reproducer as following:
Firstly, prepare conditions:
$ip netns add ns1
$ip netns add ns2
$ip link add veth1 type veth peer name veth2
$ip link set veth1 netns ns1
$ip link set veth2 netns ns2
$ip netns exec ns1 ip -6 addr add 2001:0db8:0:f101::1/64 dev veth1
$ip netns exec ns2 ip -6 addr add 2001:0db8:0:f101::2/64 dev veth2
$ip netns exec ns1 ifconfig veth1 up
$ip netns exec ns2 ifconfig veth2 up
$ip netns exec ns1 ip -6 route add 2000::/64 dev veth1 metric 1
$ip netns exec ns2 ip -6 route add 2001::/64 dev veth2 metric 1
Secondly, execute the following two commands in two ssh windows
respectively:
$ip netns exec ns1 sh
$while true; do ip -6 addr add 2001:0db8:0:f101::1/64 dev veth1; ip -6 route add 2000::/64 dev veth1 metric 1; ping6 2000::2; done
$ip netns exec ns1 sh
$while true; do ip link set veth1 mtu 1000; ip link set veth1 mtu 1500; sleep 5; done
It is because ip6_ptr has been assigned to NULL in addrconf_ifdown() firstly,
then ip6_ignore_linkdown() accesses ip6_ptr directly without NULL check.
cpu0 cpu1
fib6_table_lookup
__find_rr_leaf
addrconf_notify [ NETDEV_CHANGEMTU ]
addrconf_ifdown
RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->ip6_ptr, NULL)
find_match
ip6_ignore_linkdown
So we can add NULL check for ip6_ptr before using in ip6_ignore_linkdown() to
fix the null-ptr-deref bug.
