When IPV6_MROUTE_MULTIPLE_TABLES is enabled, multicast routing tables
must be read under RCU or RTNL lock.
In case ip6mr_vif_seq_start() fails with an error (currently not
possible, as RT6_TABLE_DFLT always exists, ip6mr_get_table() cannot fail
in this case), ip6mr_vif_seq_stop() would be called and release the RCU
lock.
