I don't think rt6_check() will work properly if this function only
returns fn_sernum. Because rt6_get_cookie() will return cookie as 0 if
the node is already deleted. And socket will store 0 as its
dst_cookie. And when ip6_dst_check() is called, rt6_check() calls
rt6_get_cookie_safe() to get the current sernum in fib6_node and finds
it is also 0, so it will say the dst is valid. But it is wrong.
Basically, the return status of rt6_get_cookie_safe() indicates if the
rt6i_node is NULL or not. And it needs to be checked in rt6_check().

Thanks. Will remove it in v2.
