net: vrf: Fix crash when IPv6 is disabled at boot time

Frank Kellermann reported a kernel crash with 4.5.0 when IPv6 is
disabled at boot using the kernel option ipv6.disable=1. Using
current net-next with the boot option:

$ ip link add red type vrf table 1001

The problem above is due to the fact that the fib hash table is not
allocated when IPv6 is disabled at boot.

As for the VRF driver it should not do any IPv6 initializations if IPv6
is disabled, so it needs to know if IPv6 is disabled at boot. The disable
parameter is private to the IPv6 module, so provide an accessor for
modules to determine if IPv6 was disabled at boot time.
