WANG Cong 8795ee7bed ipv6: reorder ip6_route_dev_notifier after ipv6_dev_notf
[ Upstream commit 242d3a49a2 ]

For each netns (except init_net), we initialize its null entry
in 3 places:

1) The template itself, as we use kmemdup()
2) Code around dst_init_metrics() in ip6_route_net_init()
3) ip6_route_dev_notify(), which is supposed to initialize it after
   loopback registers

Unfortunately the last one still happens in a wrong order because
we expect to initialize net->ipv6.ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev to
net->loopback_dev's idev, thus we have to do that after we add
idev to loopback. However, this notifier has priority == 0 same as
ipv6_dev_notf, and ipv6_dev_notf is registered after
ip6_route_dev_notifier so it is called actually after
ip6_route_dev_notifier. This is similar to commit 2f460933f5
("ipv6: initialize route null entry in addrconf_init()") which
fixes init_net.

Fix it by picking a smaller priority for ip6_route_dev_notifier.
Also, we have to release the refcnt accordingly when unregistering
loopback_dev because device exit functions are called before subsys
exit functions.
