ipv6: Use state_lock to protect ifa state

This patch makes use of the new state_lock to synchronise between
updates to the ifa state.  This fixes the issue where a remotely
triggered address deletion (through DAD failure) coincides with a
local administrative address deletion, causing certain actions to
be performed twice incorrectly.
