ipv6: Fix __ip6_route_redirect
In my last commit (a3c00e4: ipv6: Remove BACKTRACK macro), the changes in __ip6_route_redirect is incorrect. The following case is missed: 1. The for loop tries to find a valid gateway rt. If it fails to find one, rt will be NULL. 2. When rt is NULL, it is set to the ip6_null_entry. 3. The newly added 'else if', from a3c00e4, will stop the backtrack from happening.
