inet6_dump_fib() saves its progress in cb->args[1] as a positional
index within the current hash chain.  Between batches the RTNL lock
is released, so a concurrent fib6_new_table() can insert a new table
at the chain head, shifting all existing entries.  The saved index
then lands on a different table, causing fib6_dump_table() to set
w->root to the wrong table while w->node still points into the
previous one.  fib6_walk_continue() dereferences w->node->parent
(NULL) and panics:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
  RIP: 0010:fib6_walk_continue+0x6e/0x170
  Call Trace:

Fix by storing tb->tb6_id in cb->args[1] instead of a positional
index.  On resume, skip entries until the id matches; a concurrent
head-insert can never match the saved id, so the walker always
resumes on the correct table.
