Subject: [PATCH 046/104] ipv6: don't stop backtracking in fib6_lookup_1 if subtree does not match

3.5.7.22 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@...essinduktion.org>

commit 3e3be275851bc6fc90bfdcd732cd95563acd982b upstream.

In case a subtree did not match we currently stop backtracking and return
NULL (root table from fib_lookup). This could yield in invalid routing
table lookups when using subtrees.

Instead continue to backtrack until a valid subtree or node is found
and return this match.

Also remove unneeded NULL check.
