fib_rules: fix error in backport of e9919a24d302 ("fib_rules: return 0...")
When commit e9919a24d302 ("fib_rules: return 0 directly if an exactly same rule exists when NLM_F_EXCL not supplied") was backported to 4.9.y, it changed the logic a bit as err should have been reset before exiting the test, like it happens in the original logic. If this is not set, errors happen :( Reported-by: Nathan Chancellor <natechancellor@gmail.com> Reported-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Reported-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Cc: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@gmail.com> Cc: David S.
