ipv6: addrconf: Fix recursive spin lock call
A rcu stall with the following backtrace was seen on a system with forwarding, optimistic_dad and use_optimistic set. To reproduce, set these flags and allow ipv6 autoconf. This occurs because the device write_lock is acquired while already holding the read_lock.
