ipv6: add ipv6_dev_find()
This is to add an ip_dev_find like function for ipv6, used to find the dev by saddr. It will be used by TIPC protocol. So also export it. Signed-off-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Acked-by: Ying Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
