net: ip_rt_send_redirect() optimization
While doing some forwarding benchmarks, I noticed ip_rt_send_redirect() is rather expensive, even if send_redirects is false for the device. Fix is to avoid two atomic ops, we dont really need to take a reference on in_dev Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
