Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] net: Avoid unnessary loop when master_idx is invalid in inet_select_addr

From: Gao Feng <fgao@...ai8.com>

When master_idx is invalid, it is zero. It is unnecessary to iterate
all netdevs. Because l3mdev_master_ifindex_rcu(dev) != master_idx must
be true.
Now put this loop into the condition block when master_idx is valid.
