Paolo Abeni b7d6df5751 ipv6: move stub initialization after ipv6 setup completion
The ipv6 stub pointer is currently initialized before the ipv6
routing subsystem: a 3rd party can access and use such stub
before the routing data is ready.
Moreover, such pointer is not cleared in case of initialization
error, possibly leading to dangling pointers usage.

This change addresses the above moving the stub initialization
at the end of ipv6 init code.

Fixes: 5f81bd2e5d ("ipv6: export a stub for IPv6 symbols used by vxlan")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
