ipv6: fix a lockdep splat

commit 44c3d0c1 upstream.

Silence lockdep false positive about rcu_dereference() being
used in the wrong context.

First one should use rcu_dereference_protected() as we own the spinlock.

Second one should be a normal assignation, as no barrier is needed.

Fixes: 18367681 ("ipv6 flowlabel: Convert np->ipv6_fl_list to RCU.")
