Kuniyuki Iwashima f33b310eac ipv4: fib: Move fib_valid_key_len() to rtm_to_fib_config().
[ Upstream commit 254ba7e6032d3fc738050d500b0c1d8197af90ca ]

fib_valid_key_len() is called in the beginning of fib_table_insert()
or fib_table_delete() to check if the prefix length is valid.

fib_table_insert() and fib_table_delete() are called from 3 paths

  - ip_rt_ioctl()
  - inet_rtm_newroute() / inet_rtm_delroute()
  - fib_magic()

In the first ioctl() path, rtentry_to_fib_config() checks the prefix
length with bad_mask().  Also, fib_magic() always passes the correct
prefix: 32 or ifa->ifa_prefixlen, which is already validated.

Let's move fib_valid_key_len() to the rtnetlink path, rtm_to_fib_config().

While at it, 2 direct returns in rtm_to_fib_config() are changed to
goto to match other places in the same function
