ipv6: np->rxpmtu race annotation

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit 9fba1eb39e ]

Add READ_ONCE() annotations because np->rxpmtu can be changed
while udpv6_recvmsg() and rawv6_recvmsg() read it.

Since this is a very rarely used feature, and that udpv6_recvmsg()
and rawv6_recvmsg() read np->rxopt anyway, change the test order
so that np->rxpmtu does not need to be in a hot cache line.
