[PATCHLET] Tiny fixes for fastrouting

[Cornelia Huck]

Hi folks,

the following patchlet fixes two things:

- The calculation of netdev_fastroute_obstacles should now be correct.
- A driver exploiting fastrouting compiled as a module will need
netdev_fastroute to be exported.

Patchlet should go fine into 2.4.18-pre4 and 2.5.3-pre1.

I've applied your patches, thanks.  But PLEASE!
In the future use a mailer that does not undo tab
characters, I could not apply your patch as-is I had
to hand apply it because:

   -    if (pt->data) {
   +    if ((pt->data) && ((int)(pt->data)!=1)) {

had the said corruption.
