Subject: ipv6,mcast: always hold idev->lock before mca_lock
From: Amerigo Wang <amwang@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 8965779d2c0e6ab246c82a405236b1fb2adae6b2, with
some bits from commit b7b1bfce0bb68bd8f6e62a28295922785cc63781
("ipv6: split duplicate address detection and router solicitation timer")
to get the __ipv6_get_lladdr() used by this patch. ]

actually we can just hold idev->lock before taking pmc->mca_lock,
and avoid taking idev->lock again when iterating idev->addr_list,
since the upper callers of mld_newpack() already take
read_lock_bh(&idev->lock).
