Subject: [PATCH net] ipv6: fix RTNL assert fail in DAD

IPv6 duplicate address detection is triggering the following assertion
failure when using macvlan + vif + multicast.
 RTNL: assertion failed at net/core/dev.c (4496)

This happens because the DAD timer is adding a multicast address without
acquiring the RTNL mutex. In order to acquire the RTNL mutex, it must be
done in process context; therefore it must be in a workqueue.

Full backtrace:

Patch is against -net (not net-next) because this is a bug fix.
Should be applied to -stable as well.
