bridge: Fix possibly wrong MLD queries' ethernet source address
The ipv6_dev_get_saddr() is currently called with an uninitialized destination address. Although in tests it usually seemed to nevertheless always fetch the right source address, there seems to be a possible race condition. Therefore this commit changes this, first setting the destination address and only after that fetching the source address.
