ip6_datagram_send_ctl() parses both SOL_IPV6 and SOL_SOCKET control
messages. For SOL_SOCKET messages it passes ipc6->sockc to
__sock_cmsg_send(), which updates fields such as tsflags with
read-modify-write operations.

The IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS and flowlabel option paths only set ipc6.opt
before calling ip6_datagram_send_ctl(). If a SOL_SOCKET control message
such as SO_TIMESTAMPING_* or SCM_TS_OPT_ID is present, this can read
uninitialized sockc state.

Initialize the ipcm6_cookie with ipcm6_init_sk(), as the normal IPv6
sendmsg paths do, before overriding ->opt with the temporary option
buffer.
