Cover letter [PATCH v2 net-next 0/2] ipv6: fix hangup on device removal

This addresses the infamous unregister_netdevice splat in net selftests; the actual fix is carried by the first patch, while the 2nd one addresses a related problem in the relevant test that was patially hiding the problem.

Targeting net-next as the issue is quite old and I feel a little lost in the fib info/nh jungle.
