When IPv6 module gets initialized but hits an error in the middle,
kenel panic with:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
When ipv6 initialization fails, it will try to cleanup and calls:
neigh_table_clear()
neigh_ifdown(tbl, NULL)
pneigh_queue_purge(&tbl->proxy_queue, dev_net(dev == NULL))
# dev_net(NULL) triggers null-ptr-deref.
Fix it by passing NULL to pneigh_queue_purge() in neigh_ifdown() if dev
is NULL, to make kernel not panic immediately.
Fixes: 66ba215cb5 ("neigh: fix possible DoS due to net iface start/stop loop")
