[PATCH net-next v12 05/11] ipv6: do not call ndisc_send_rs() with write lock

[Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com>]

From: Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com>

Because vxlan module will call ip6_dst_lookup() in TX path,
which will hold write lock. So we have to release this write lock
before calling ndisc_send_rs(), otherwise could deadlock.
