ipv6: Fix neigh lookup using NULL device.
In some of the rt6_bind_neighbour() call sites, it hasn't hooked up the rt->dst.dev pointer yet, so we'd deref a NULL pointer when obtaining dev->ifindex for the neighbour hash function computation. Just pass the netdevice explicitly in to fix this problem. Reported-by: Bjarke Istrup Pedersen <gurligebis@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
