Subject: [PATCH] net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c: quiet sparse "shadows" noise

net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c: quiet sparse "shadows" noise

If CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH is defined the symbol 'nh' is
declared twice in the function fib_sync_down_dev. First as the
loop variable used to iterate the hlist. Then again due to the
change_nexthops macro. This produces a sparse warning and
makes the code harder to understand.

Fix the issue by renaming the first symbol.
