We'll need something similar for ipv6 eventually...
I would suggest that we do away with dst_ops->default_mtu() and just
have dst_ops->mtu() which gets invoked unconditionally by dst_mtu().
You can integrate the ->default_mtu() handling and the input route
check into this new method. Then IPv6 can be fixed in a
straightforward manner later.
