net: ipv6: ignore null_entry on route dumps

The null_entry route uses the loopback device for dst.dev but may not have rt6i_idev set because of the order in which initializations are done -- ip6_route_net_init is run before addrconf_init has initialized the loopback device. Fixing the initialization order is a much bigger problem with no obvious solution thus far. The BUG is triggered when the loopback is set down and the netif_running check added by a1a22c1206 fails. The fill_node descends to checking rt->rt6i_idev for ignore_routes_with_linkdown and since rt6i_idev is NULL it faults. The null_entry route should not be processed in a dump request. Catch and ignore. This check is done in rt6_dump_route as it is the highest place in the callchain with knowledge of both the route and the network namespace.
