Subject: [PATCH net] ipv6: fix WARNING in ip6_route_net_exit_late()

During the initialization of ip6_route_net_init_late(), if file
ipv6_route or rt6_stats fails to be created, the initialization is
successful by default. Therefore, the ipv6_route or rt6_stats file
doesn't be found during the remove in ip6_route_net_exit_late(). It
will cause WRNING.

The following is the stack information:
name 'rt6_stats'
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 9 at fs/proc/generic.c:712 remove_proc_entry+0x389/0x460
Modules linked in:
Workqueue: netns cleanup_net
RIP: 0010:remove_proc_entry+0x389/0x460
PKRU: 55555554
