ipv6: fib: Dump tables during registration to FIB chain
Dump all the FIB tables in each net namespace upon registration to the FIB notification chain so that the callee will have a complete view of the tables. The integrity of the dump is ensured by a per-table sequence counter that is incremented (under write lock) whenever a route is added or deleted from the table. All the sequence counters are read (under each table's read lock) and summed, prior and after the dump. In case the counters differ, then the dump is either restarted or the registration fails. While it's possible for a table to be modified after its counter has been read, this isn't really a problem. In case it happened before it was read the second time, then the comparison at the end will fail. If it happened afterwards, then we're guaranteed to be notified about the change, as the notification block is registered prior to the second read.
