ipv6: mcast: Remove mca_get().

Browse source

Since commit 63ed8de4be ("mld: add mc_lock for protecting per-interface
mld data"), the newly allocated struct ifmcaddr6 cannot be removed until
inet6_dev->mc_lock is released, so mca_get() and mc_put() are unnecessary.

Let's remove the extra refcounting.

Note that mca_get() was only used in __ipv6_dev_mc_inc().
