From: Weilong Chen <chenweilong@xxxxxxxxxx>

There's a check for ip6_null_entry, but it's not enough if the config
CONFIG_IPV6_MULTIPLE_TABLES is selected. Blackhole or prohibited entries
should also be ignored.

This path is for kernel before v3.6, as there's a commit b94f1c0
use icmpv6_notify() instead of rt6_redirect() and rt6_redirect has
been deleted.

The oops as follow:

This happened when ip6_route_redirect found a rt which was set
blackhole, the rt had a NULL rt6i_table argument which is accessed by
__ip6_ins_rt() when trying to lock rt6i_table->tb6_lock caused a BUG:
"BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer"
