[ Upstream commit cebe84c6190d741045a322f5343f717139993c08 ] Now when ip route flush cache and it turn out all fnhe_genid != genid. If a redirect/pmtu icmp packet comes and the old fnhe is found and all it's members but fnhe_genid will be updated. Then next time when it looks up route and tries to rebind this fnhe to the new dst, the fnhe will be flushed due to fnhe_genid != genid. It causes this redirect/pmtu icmp packet acutally not to be applied. This patch is to also reset fnhe_genid when updating a route cache.
