ipv4: Invalidate the socket cached route on pmtu events if possible
The route lookup in ipv4_sk_update_pmtu() might return a route
different from the route we cached at the socket. This is because
standart routes are per cpu, so each cpu has it's own struct rtable.
This means that we do not invalidate the socket cached route if the
NET_RX_SOFTIRQ is not served by the same cpu that the sending socket
uses. As a result, the cached route reused until we disconnect.
With this patch we invalidate the socket cached route if possible.
If the socket is owened by the user, we can't update the cached
route directly. A followup patch will implement socket release
callback functions for datagram sockets to handle this case.
