ipv6: Remove BACKTRACK macro
It is the prep work to reduce the number of calls to fib6_lookup().
The BACKTRACK macro could be hard-to-read and error-prone due to
its side effects (mainly goto).
This patch is to:
1. Replace BACKTRACK macro with a function (fib6_backtrack) with the following
return values:
* If it is backtrack-able, returns next fn for retry.
* If it reaches the root, returns NULL.
2. The caller needs to decide if a backtrack is needed (by testing
rt == net->ipv6.ip6_null_entry).
3. Rename the goto labels in ip6_pol_route() to make the next few
patches easier to read.
