Fixing the issue with blackhole routes as it was accomplished in mainline
would require pulling in a lot more code, and people were not interested
in pulling in all of the dependencies given the much higher risk of trying
to select the right subset of changes to include. The addition of the
single line of "dst->obsolete = -1;" in ipv4_dst_blackhole() was much
easier to verify, and is in the spirit of the patch in question. This is
the minimal set of changes to fix the bug in question.
