Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 004/168] ipv4: Fix incorrect error code when adding an unreachable route

3.16.7-ckt3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Panu Matilainen <pmatilai@...hat.com>

commit 49dd18ba4615eaa72f15c9087dea1c2ab4744cf5 upstream.

Trying to add an unreachable route incorrectly returns -ESRCH if
if custom FIB rules are present:

[root@...alhost ~]# ip route add 74.125.31.199 dev eth0 via 1.2.3.4
RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable
[root@...alhost ~]# ip rule add to 55.66.77.88 table 200
[root@...alhost ~]# ip route add 74.125.31.199 dev eth0 via 1.2.3.4
RTNETLINK answers: No such process
[root@...alhost ~]#

Commit 83886b6b636173b206f475929e58fac75c6f2446 ("[NET]: Change "not found"
return value for rule lookup") changed fib_rules_lookup()
to use -ESRCH as a "not found" code internally, but for user space it
should be translated into -ENETUNREACH. Handle the translation centrally in
ipv4-specific fib_lookup(), leaving the DECnet case alone.

On a related note, commit b7a71b51ee37d919e4098cd961d59a883fd272d8
("ipv4: removed redundant conditional") removed a similar translation from
ip_route_input_slow() prematurely AIUI.

Fixes: b7a71b51ee37 ("ipv4: removed redundant conditional")
