[NEIGH]: Fix race between pneigh deletion and ipv6's ndisc_recv_ns (v3).
Proxy neighbors do not have any reference counting, so any caller of pneigh_lookup (unless it's a netlink triggered add/del routine) should _not_ perform any actions on the found proxy entry. There's one exception from this rule - the ipv6's ndisc_recv_ns() uses found entry to check the flags for NTF_ROUTER. This creates a race between the ndisc and pneigh_delete - after the pneigh is returned to the caller, the nd_tbl.lock is dropped and the deleting procedure may proceed. One of the fixes would be to add a reference counting, but this problem exists for ndisc only. Besides such a patch would be too big for -rc4. So I propose to introduce a __pneigh_lookup() which is supposed to be called with the lock held and use it in ndisc code to check the flags on alive pneigh entry. Changes from v2: As David noticed, Exported the __pneigh_lookup() to ipv6 module. The checkpatch generates a warning on it, since the EXPORT_SYMBOL does not follow the symbol itself, but in this file all the exports come at the end, so I decided no to break this harmony. Changes from v1: Fixed comments from YOSHIFUJI - indentation of prototype in header and the pndisc_check_router() name - and a compilation fix, pointed by Daniel - the is_routed was (falsely) considered as uninitialized by gcc.
