ipv6: reallocate addrconf router for ipv6 address when lo device up
commit 25fb6ca4ed9cad72f14f61629b68dc03c0d9713f "net IPv6 : Fix broken IPv6 routing table after loopback down-up" allocates addrconf router for ipv6 address when lo device up. but commit a881ae1f625c599b460cc8f8a7fcb1c438f699ad "ipv6:don't call addrconf_dst_alloc again when enable lo" breaks this behavior. Since the addrconf router is moved to the garbage list when lo device down, we should release this router and rellocate a new one for ipv6 address when lo device up. This patch solves bug 67951 on bugzilla https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67951 change from v1: use ip6_rt_put to repleace ip6_del_rt, thanks Hannes! change code style, suggested by Sergei.
