fib_trie: Address possible NULL pointer dereference in resize
If the inflate call failed it would return NULL. As a result tp would be set to NULL and cause use to trigger a NULL pointer dereference in should_halve if the inflate failed on the first attempt. In order to prevent this we should decrement max_work before we actually attempt to inflate as this will force us to exit before attempting to halve a node we should have inflated. In order to keep things symmetric between inflate and halve I went ahead and also moved the decrement of max_work for the halve case as well so we take care of that before we actually attempt to halve the tnode.
