ipv4: Add helper inet_csk_update_pmtu().
This abstracts away the call to dst_ops->update_pmtu() so that we can transparently handle the fact that, in the future, the dst itself can be invalidated by the PMTU update (when we have non-host routes cached in sockets). So we try to rebuild the socket cached route after the method invocation if necessary. This isn't used by SCTP because it needs to cache dsts per-transport, and thus will need it's own local version of this helper. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
