Subject: ipv4: fix to not remove local route on link down

From: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg>

[ Upstream commit 4f823defdd5b106a5e89745ee8b163c71855de1e ]

When fib_netdev_event calls fib_disable_ip on NETDEV_DOWN event
we should not delete the local routes if the local address
is still present. The confusion comes from the fact that both
fib_netdev_event and fib_inetaddr_event use the NETDEV_DOWN
constant. Fix it by returning back the variable 'force'.

Steps to reproduce:
modprobe dummy
ifconfig dummy0 192.168.168.1 up
ifconfig dummy0 down
ip route list table local | grep dummy | grep host
local 192.168.168.1 dev dummy0  proto kernel  scope host  src 192.168.168.1
