IFA_F_PERMANENT addresses require the allocation of a bunch of percpu
pointers, currently in atomic scope.

Similar to commit 51454ea42c ("ipv6: fix locking issues with loops
over idev->addr_list"), move fixup_permanent_addr() outside the
&idev->lock scope, and do the allocations with GFP_KERNEL. With such
change fixup_permanent_addr() is invoked with the BH enabled, and the
ifp lock acquired there needs the BH variant.

Note that we don't need to acquire a reference to the permanent
addresses before releasing the mentioned write lock, because
addrconf_permanent_addr() runs under RTNL and ifa removal always happens
under RTNL, too.

Also the PERMANENT flag is constant in the relevant scope, as it can be
cleared only by inet6_addr_modify() under the RTNL lock.
