ipv4: Detect rollover in specific fib table dump
Sven-Haegar reported looping on fib dumps when 255.255.255.255 route has been added to a table. The looping is caused by the key rolling over from FFFFFFFF to 0. When dumping a specific table only, we need a means to detect when the table dump is done. The key and count saved to cb args are both 0 only at the start of the table dump. If key is 0 and count > 0, then we are in the rollover case. Detect and return to avoid looping. This only affects dumps of a specific table; for dumps of all tables (the case prior to the change in the Fixes tag) inet_dump_fib moved the entry counter to the next table and reset the cb args used by fib_table_dump and fn_trie_dump_leaf, so the rollover ffffffff back to 0 did not cause looping with the dumps.
