ipv4: Mask upper DSCP bits and ECN bits in NETLINK_FIB_LOOKUP family
The NETLINK_FIB_LOOKUP netlink family can be used to perform a FIB lookup according to user provided parameters and communicate the result back to user space. However, unlike other users of the FIB lookup API, the upper DSCP bits and the ECN bits of the DS field are not masked, which can result in the wrong result being returned. Solve this by masking the upper DSCP bits and the ECN bits using IPTOS_RT_MASK. The structure that communicates the request and the response is not exported to user space, so it is unlikely that this netlink family is actually in use [1].
