ipv6: round of data-races fixes
This series is inspired by one related syzbot report.
Many inet6_sk(sk) fields reads or writes are racy.
Move 1-bit fields to inet->inet_flags to provide
atomic safety. inet6_{test|set|clear|assign}_bit() helpers
could be changed later if we need to make room in inet_flags.
Also add missing READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() when
lockless readers need access to specific fields.
np->srcprefs will be handled separately to avoid merge conflicts
because a prior patch was posted for net tree.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
