ipmr: drop packets with unknown ingress VIF

A packet can race with VIF publication and make ipmr_find_vif() return
-1 even though the VIF device pointer is already visible. The parent VIF
device check can then pass with an invalid ingress VIF. For (*,G)
entries, this can also let the packet be forwarded back out its ingress
VIF.

Drop packets whose ingress VIF lookup fails in both IPv4 and IPv6
forwarding, before checking the MFC parent device. This prevents
forwarding with an unknown ingress VIF and avoids the (*,G) hairpin.

Without the early check, the negative index can reach the IPv4 offload
lookup only for an skb marked for L3 forwarding offload, currently done
by mlxsw. The race is rare; the supplied PoC reports only the UBSAN
negative-index diagnostic.

Fixes: 9b1c21d898 ("ip6mr: do not acquire mrt_lock while calling ip6_mr_forward()")
