Linux 2.1.68 introduced RTNH_F_PERVASIVE, but it had no implementation
and couldn't be enabled since the required config parameter wasn't in
any Kconfig file (see commit d088dde7b196 ("ipv4: obsolete config in
kernel source (IP_ROUTE_PERVASIVE)")).
This commit removes all remaining references to RTNH_F_PERVASIVE.
Although this will cause userspace applications that were using the
flag to fail to build, they will be alerted to the fact that using
RTNH_F_PERVASIVE was not achieving anything.
