This is very confusing and probably error-prone. You call
alloc_percpu(), but don't free it in the error path and instead rely on
the call to free_fib_info() in the error path of fib_create_info().
Better to free it here and NULL-ify the pointer. Then the call to
rt_fibinfo_free_cpus() in free_fib_info_rcu() is basically a NOP.
