ipv4: Don't create nh exeption when the device mtu is smaller than the reported pmtu
When a local tool like tracepath tries to send packets bigger than the device mtu, we create a nh exeption and set the pmtu to device mtu. The device mtu does not expire, so check if the device mtu is smaller than the reported pmtu and don't crerate a nh exeption in that case.
