net: ipv4: listify ip_rcv_finish

ip_rcv_finish_core(), if it does not drop, sets skb->dst by either early
 demux or route lookup.  The last step, calling dst_input(skb), is left to
 the caller; in the listified case, we split to form sublists with a common
 dst, but then ip_sublist_rcv_finish() just calls dst_input(skb) in a loop.
The next step in listification would thus be to add a list_input() method
 to struct dst_entry.

Early demux is an indirect call based on iph->protocol; this is another
 opportunity for listification which is not taken here (it would require
 slicing up ip_rcv_finish_core() to allow splitting on protocol changes).
