[IPV6]: Fix addrconf dead lock.
We need to release idev->lcok before we call addrconf_dad_stop(). It calls ipv6_addr_del(), which will hold idev->lock. Bug spotted by Yasuyuki KOZAKAI <yasuyuki.kozakai@toshiba.co.jp>. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
