[PATCH net-next] ipv6: fib6_rules should return exact return value

With the addition of the suppress operation
(7764a45a8f1fe74d4f7d301eaca2e558e7e2831a ("fib_rules: add .suppress
operation") we rely on accurate error reporting of the fib_rules.actions.

fib6_rule_action always returned -EAGAIN in case we could not find a
matching route and 0 if a rule was matched. This also included a match
for blackhole or prohibited rule actions which could get suppressed by
the new logic.

So adapt fib6_rule_action to always return the correct error code as
its counterpart fib4_rule_action does. This also fixes a possiblity of
nullptr-deref, where we don't match the rule, thus rt == NULL. Because
the condition rt != ip6_null_entry still holdes it seems we could later
on dereference rt->dst.
