mlxsw: spectrum_router: Update nexthop RIF on update
The function mlxsw_sp_nexthop_rif_update() walks the list of nexthops associated with a RIF, and updates the corresponding entries in the switch. It is used in particular when a tunnel underlay netdevice moves to a different VRF, and all the nexthops are migrated over to a new RIF. The problem is that each nexthop holds a reference to its RIF, and that is not updated. So after the old RIF is gone, further activity on these nexthops (such as downing the underlay netdevice) dereferences a dangling pointer. Fix the issue by updating rif of impacted nexthops before calling mlxsw_sp_nexthop_rif_update().
