[IPV4]: ip_route_input panic fix

This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6388
The bug is caused by ip_route_input dereferencing skb->nh.protocol of
the dummy skb passed dow from inet_rtm_getroute (Thanks Thomas for seeing
it). It only happens if the route requested is for a multicast IP
address.
