ipv6: Add rt6_make_pcpu_route()

iamkafai · davem330 · commit a73e4195636c · 2015-08-17T14:28:03.000-07:00
It is a prep work for fixing a potential deadlock when creating
a pcpu rt.

The current rt6_get_pcpu_route() will also create a pcpu rt if one does not
exist.  This patch moves the pcpu rt creation logic into another function,
rt6_make_pcpu_route().
