netfilter: ip6t_rpfilter: reject routes without inet6_dev

Browse Source 
ip6_route_lookup() can return an error-free route whose rt6i_idev is
NULL. Lowering an external nexthop device's MTU below IPV6_MIN_MTU tears
down its inet6_dev while fib6_ifdown() leaves routes using nexthop objects
in the FIB. An unprivileged user can construct this state with rtnetlink
in a private user and network namespace, then trigger a NULL dereference
through an IPv6 rpfilter lookup:

  Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
  0xdffffc0000000000
  KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000007]

Reject routes without an inet6_dev immediately after lookup. Such routes
are not eligible for reverse-path filtering, and the check protects all
later rt6i_idev dereferences.
