ipv6: check fn->leaf before it is used
If rwlock is replaced with rcu and spinlock, it is possible that the reader thread will see fn->leaf as NULL in the following scenarios: 1. fib6_add() is in progress and we have already inserted a new node but not yet inserted the route. 2. fib6_del_route() is in progress and we have already set fn->leaf to NULL but not yet freed the node because of rcu grace period. This patch makes sure all the reader threads check fn->leaf first before using it. And together with later patch to grab rcu_read_lock() and rcu_dereference() fn->leaf, it makes sure reader threads are safe when accessing fn->leaf.
