Subject: [PATCH net] ipv6: fix potential "struct net" leak in inet6_rtm_getaddr()

It seems that if userspace provides a correct IFA_TARGET_NETNSID value
but no IFA_ADDRESS and IFA_LOCAL attributes, inet6_rtm_getaddr()
returns -EINVAL with an elevated "struct net" refcount.

Fixes: 6ecf4c37eb3e ("ipv6: enable IFA_TARGET_NETNSID for RTM_GETADDR")
