ipv6: fix rt6_update_expires
Commit 1716a961 (ipv6: fix problem with expired dst cache) broke PMTU discovery. rt6_update_expires() calls dst_set_expires(), which only updates dst->expires if it has not been set previously (expires == 0) or if the new expires is earlier than the current dst->expires. rt6_update_expires() needs to zero rt->dst.expires, otherwise it will contain ivalid data left over from rt->dst.from and will confuse dst_set_expires().
