ipv6: remove RTNL protection from ip6addrlbl_dump()



No longer hold RTNL while calling ip6addrlbl_dump()
("ip addrlabel show")

ip6addrlbl_dump() was already mostly relying on RCU anyway.

Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations around
net->ipv6.ip6addrlbl_table.seq

Note that ifal_seq value is currently ignored in iproute2,
and a bit weak.

We might user later cb->seq  / nl_dump_check_consistent()
protocol if needed.

Also change return value for a completed dump,
so that NLMSG_DONE can be appended to current skb,
saving one recvmsg() system call.

v2: read net->ipv6.ip6addrlbl_table.seq once, (David Ahern)
