[PATCH 4.4 14/73] ipv4/fib: dont warn when primary address is missing if in_dev is dead

[ Upstream commit 391a20333b8393ef2e13014e6e59d192c5594471 ]

After commit fbd40ea0180a ("ipv4: Don't do expensive useless work
during inetdev destroy.") when deleting an interface,
fib_del_ifaddr() can be executed without any primary address
present on the dead interface.

The above is safe, but triggers some "bug: prim == NULL" warnings.

This commit avoids warning if the in_dev is dead
