[NET]: Set a separate lockdep class for neighbour table's proxy_queue
Otherwise the following calltrace will lead to a wrong
lockdep warning:
neigh_proxy_process()
`- lock(neigh_table->proxy_queue.lock);
arp_redo /* via tbl->proxy_redo */
arp_process
neigh_event_ns
neigh_update
skb_queue_purge
`- lock(neighbor->arp_queue.lock);
This is not a deadlock actually, as neighbor table's proxy_queue
and the neighbor's arp_queue are different queues.
Lockdep thinks there is a deadlock as both queues are initialized
with skb_queue_head_init() and thus have a common class.
