[IPV4] ROUTE: ip_rt_dump() is unecessary slow

Browse Source 
I noticed "ip route list cache x.y.z.t" can be *very* slow.

While strace-ing -T it I also noticed that first part of route cache
is fetched quite fast :

recvmsg(3, {msg_name(12)={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, pid=0, groups=00000000}, msg_iov(1)=[{"p\0\0\0\30\0\2\0\254i\202

while the part at the end of the table is more expensive:

The following patch corrects this performance/latency problem,
removing quadratic behavior.
