Eric Dumazet bb1d23b026 [IPV4]: Bug fix in rt_check_expire()
- rt_check_expire() fixes (an overflow occured if size of the hash
  was >= 65536)

reminder of the bugfix:

The rt_check_expire() has a serious problem on machines with large
route caches, and a standard HZ value of 1000.

With default values, ie ip_rt_gc_interval = 60*HZ = 60000 ;

the loop count :

     for (t = ip_rt_gc_interval << rt_hash_log; t >= 0;


overflows (t is a 31 bit value) as soon rt_hash_log is >= 16  (65536
slots in route cache hash table).

In this case, rt_check_expire() does nothing at all
