net: fix length computation in rt_check_expire()

Browse Source 
rt_check_expire() computes average and standard deviation of chain lengths,
but not correclty reset length to 0 at beginning of each chain.
This probably gives overflows for sum2 (and sum) on loaded machines instead
of meaningful results.
