[IPV4] ROUTE: ip_rt_dump() is unecessary slow
[ Upstream commit: d8c9283089287341c85a0a69de32c2287a990e71 ]
I noticed "ip route list cache x.y.z.t" can be *very* slow.
While strace-ing -T it I also noticed that first part of route cache
is fetched quite fast :

The following patch corrects this performance/latency problem,
removing quadratic behavior.
