ipv4: take dst->__refcnt when caching dst in fib
In IPv4 routing code, fib_nh and fib_nh_exception can hold pointers
to struct rtable but they never increment dst->__refcnt.
This leads to the need of the dst garbage collector because when user
is done with this dst and calls dst_release(), it can only decrement
dst->__refcnt and can not free the dst even it sees dst->__refcnt
drops from 1 to 0 (unless DST_NOCACHE flag is set) because the routing
code might still hold reference to it.
And when the routing code tries to delete a route, it has to put the
dst to the gc_list if dst->__refcnt is not yet 0 and have a gc thread
running periodically to check on dst->__refcnt and finally to free dst
when refcnt becomes 0.
This patch increments dst->__refcnt when
fib_nh/fib_nh_exception holds reference to this dst and properly release
the dst when fib_nh/fib_nh_exception has been updated with a new dst.
This patch is a preparation in order to fully get rid of dst gc later.
