ipv6: Fix crash when IPv6 is administratively disabled

The global 'raw_v6_hashinfo' variable can be accessed even when IPv6 is
administratively disabled via the 'ipv6.disable=1' kernel command line
option, leading to a crash [1].

Fix by restoring the original behavior and always initializing the
variable, regardless of IPv6 support being administratively disabled or
not.
