Hi David

Before the patch to convert ip_rt_acct to percpu storage,
I believe this bug should be corrected.

(against net-2.6.25 but might apply on previous kernels as well)

Thank you

[PATCH] NET : Corrects a bug in ip_rt_acct_read()

It seems that stats of cpu 0 are counted twice, since 
for_each_possible_cpu() is looping on all possible cpus,
including 0

Before percpu conversion of ip_rt_acct, we should also remove
the assumption that CPU 0 is online (or even possible)
