oops. Better fix the route cache too.

I'm not sure what went wrong in there, sorry for letting that slip through.
Obviously, doing

if (a)
foo = bar;
else
foo = zot;

if (b)
foo = rab;
else
foo = toz;

does not make a ton of sense.

This should fix it up. We keep the table sizing identical to that which
we had in 2.6.earlier, with a boot option override.
