Subject: [net PATCH] fib_trie: leaf_walk_rcu should not compute key if key
 is less than pn->key

We were computing the child index in cases where the key value we were
looking for was actually less than the base key of the tnode.  As a result
we were getting incorrect index values that would cause us to skip over
some children.

To fix this I have added a test that will force us to use child index 0 if
the key we are looking for is less than the key of the current tnode.

Fixes: 8be33e955cb9 ("fib_trie: Fib walk rcu should take a tnode and key instead of a trie and a leaf")

This will need to be queued up for stable as well.  This applies to 4.1 and
4.2 kernels as well.
