I could not reproduce the NULL rt6i_idev issue after you route init fix, So
I think it's also safe to dump null_entry now. There is a v3 patch. After
the patch, we could dump unreachable route info like:

+ ip netns exec client ip -6 route get 2003::1
unreachable 2003::1 dev lo table unspec proto kernel metric 4294967295 error 
-101

Would you hlep review the v3 patch? I prepare not touch the check in
function rt6_dump_route() now.
