ipv6: fix prefix route expiry in modify_prefix_route()

modify_prefix_route() is given the lifetime in clock_t relative to now,
but fib6_set_expires() wants an absolute jiffies value. So when a
permanent address is changed to a finite valid_lft, the prefix route
ends up already expired and GC removes it.

Steps to reproduce:

  ip link add dummy9 type dummy
  ip link set dummy9 up
  ip -6 addr add 2001:db8:9::1/64 dev dummy9
  ip -6 addr change 2001:db8:9::1/64 dev dummy9 valid_lft 3600 preferred_lft 3600
  ip -6 route show dev dummy9    # expires is negative
