net/ipv6: do not copy dst flags on rt init
DST_NOCOUNT in dst_entry::flags tracks whether the entry counts toward route cache size (net->ipv6.sysctl.ip6_rt_max_size). If the flag is NOT set, dst_ops::pcpuc_entries counter is incremented in dist_init() and decremented in dst_destroy(). This flag is tied to allocation/deallocation of dst_entry and should not be copied from another dst/route. Otherwise it can happen that dst_ops::pcpuc_entries counter grows until no new routes can be allocated because the counter reached ip6_rt_max_size due to DST_NOCOUNT not set and thus no counter decrements on gc-ed routes.
