[patch 49/59] IPV4: Fix the fib trie iterator to work with a single entry routing tables

[Chris Wright]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

In a kernel with trie routing enabled I had a simple routing setup
with only a single route to the outside world and no default
route. "ip route table list main" showed my the route just fine but
/proc/net/route was an empty file.  What was going on?

Thinking it was a bug in something I did and I looked deeper.  Eventually
I setup a second route and everything looked correct, huh?  Finally I
realized that the it was just the iterator pair in fib_trie_get_first,
fib_trie_get_next just could not handle a routing table with a single entry.

So to save myself and others further confusion, here is a simple fix for
the fib proc iterator so it works even when there is only a single route
in a routing table.
