Merge branch 'ipv6_dev_get_saddr-rcu'
Eric Dumazet says:
====================
ipv6: ipv6_dev_get_saddr() rcu works
Sending IPv6 udp packets on non connected sockets is quite slow,
because ipv6_dev_get_saddr() is still using an rwlock and silly
references games on ifa.
Tested:
$ ./super_netperf 16 -H 4444::555:0786 -l 2000 -t UDP_STREAM -- -m 100 &
[1] 12527
Performance is boosted from 2.02 Mpps to 4.28 Mpps
