[PATCH net-next 0/2] seg6: skip route refcounts in seg6local lookups

seg6local looks up the nexthop of its IPv6 and IPv4 behaviors from the
RCU read-side section of the receive path, yet takes and drops a route
reference for every packet.  Skip the reference, as ip6_route_input()
and ip_rcv_finish() do.
