ipv4: dont create routes on down devices

In ip_route_output_slow(), instead of allowing a route to be created on
a not UPed device, report -ENETUNREACH immediately.

# ip tunnel add mode ipip remote 10.16.0.164 local
10.16.0.72 dev eth0
# (Note : tunl1 is down)
# ping -I tunl1 10.1.2.3
PING 10.1.2.3 (10.1.2.3) from 192.168.18.5 tunl1: 56(84) bytes of data.
(nothing)
# ./a.out tunl1
# ip tunnel del tunl1
Message from syslogd@shelby at Dec 22 10:12:08 ...
  kernel: unregister_netdevice: waiting for tunl1 to become free.
Usage count = 3

After patch:
# ping -I tunl1 10.1.2.3
connect: Network is unreachable
