[PATCH 5/7] ipv4: Avoid use of signed integers in fib_trie code.

[David Miller <davem@davemloft.net>]

GCC emits all kinds of crazy zero extensions when we go from signed
int, to unsigned short, etc. etc.

This transformation has to be legal because:

1) In tkey_extract_bits() in mask_pfx(), the values are used to
   perform shifts, on which negative values are undefined by C.

2) In fib_table_lookup() we perform comparisons with unsigned
   values, constants, and additions.  None of which should
   encounter negative values.
