Subject: [PATCH v3] ipv4: check rt_genid in dst_check

Xfrm_dst keeps a reference to ipv4 rtable entries on each
cached bundle. The only way to renew xfrm_dst when the underlying
route has changed, is to implement dst_check for this. This is
what ipv6 side does too.

The problems started after 87c1e12b5eeb7b30b4b41291bef8e0b41fc3dde9
which fixed a bug causing xfrm_dst to not get reused, until that all
lookups always generated new xfrm_dst with new route reference
and path mtu worked. But after the fix, the old routes started
to get reused even after they were expired causing pmtu to break
(well it would occationally work if the rtable gc had run recently
and marked the route obsolete causing dst_check to get called).
