This fixes a bug in the way that the LLE timers for nd6
and arp were being used. They basically would pass in the
mutex to the callout_init. Because they used this method
to the callout system, it was possible to "stop" the callout.
When flushing the table and you stopped the running callout, the
callout_stop code would return 1 indicating that it was going
to stop the callout (that was about to run on the callout_wheel blocked
by the function calling the stop). Now when 1 was returned, it would
lower the reference count one extra time for the stopped timer, then
a few lines later delete the memory. Of course the callout_wheel was
stuck in the lock code and would then crash since it was accessing
freed memory. By using callout_init(c, 1) we always get a 0 back
and the reference counting bug does not rear its head. We do have
to make a few adjustments to the callouts themselves though to make
sure it does the proper thing if rescheduled as well as gets the lock.
