ipv4: Do not use dead fib_info entries.
[ Upstream commit dccd9ecc374462e5d6a5b8f8110415a86c2213d8 ]
Due to RCU lookups and RCU based release, fib_info objects can
be found during lookup which have fi->fib_dead set.
We must ignore these entries, otherwise we risk dereferencing
the parts of the entry which are being torn down.
