Hmm, I see the problem now.

What about adding a parameter to ipmr_fib_lookup(),
to keep its spirit ?

ipmr_fib_lookup(net, &fl4, &mrt);
->
ipmr_fib_lookup(net, &fl4, &mrt, &rule);

Since ipmr_rt_fib_lookup() has the same rule leak, no ?

Its a bit late here, so maybe following is just stupid :
Cant we do the fib_rule_put() inside ipmr_fib_lookup() ?
