net: prevent dst uses after free
In linux-4.13, Wei worked hard to convert dst to a traditional refcounted model, removing GC. We now want to make sure a dst refcount can not transition from 0 back to 1. The problem here is that input path attached a not refcounted dst to an skb. Then later, because packet is forwarded and hits skb_dst_force() before exiting RCU section, we might try to take a refcount on one dst that is about to be freed, if another cpu saw 1 -> 0 transition in dst_release() and queued the dst for freeing after one RCU grace period. Lets unify skb_dst_force() and skb_dst_force_safe(), since we should always perform the complete check against dst refcount, and not assume it is not zero.
