net: set fib rule refcount after malloc
The configure callback of fib_rules_ops can change the refcnt of a fib rule. For instance, mlxsw takes a refcnt when adding the processing of the rule to a work queue. Thus the rule refcnt can not be reset to to 1 afterwards. Move the refcnt setting to after the allocation.
