addrconf_prefix_rcv returned early without releasing the inet6_dev
pointer when the PIO lifetime is less than accept_ra_min_lft.

Fixes: 5027d54a9c30 ("net: change accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to affect all RA lifetimes")

Hi Patrick,

this patch looks good to me, but unfortunately our CI got a bit
confused and tried to apply it to net, where it does not apply
because the cited commit is not present there, rather than
net-next, where it does apply. This creates a process issue for us.

I think it would be useful if you could repost the patch with
it targeted at net-next:

	Subject: [PATCH net-next] ...
