Mahesh Bandewar 8799a221f5 ipv4: initialize fib_trie prior to register_netdev_notifier call.
Net stack initialization currently initializes fib-trie after the
first call to netdevice_notifier() call. In fact fib_trie initialization
needs to happen before first rtnl_register(). It does not cause any problem
since there are no devices UP at this moment, but trying to bring 'lo'
UP at initialization would make this assumption wrong and exposes the issue.

Fixes following crash

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
