[RFC PATCH 1/2] ipv6: Export ipv6 functions for use by other protocols

[RFC PATCH 1/2] ipv6: Export ipv6 functions for use by other protocols

[James Chapman]

For implementing other protocols on top of IPv6, such as L2TPv3's IP
encapsulation over ipv6, we'd like to call some IPv6 functions which
are not currently exported.
