ipv6: Do not consider link down nexthops in path selection
Nexthops whose link is down are not supposed to be considered during
path selection when the "ignore_routes_with_linkdown" sysctl is set.
This is done by assigning them a negative region boundary.
However, when comparing the computed hash (unsigned) with the region
boundary (signed), the negative region boundary is treated as unsigned,
resulting in incorrect nexthop selection.
Fix by treating the computed hash as signed. Note that the computed hash
is always in range of [0, 2^31 - 1].
Fixes: 3d709f69a3e7 ("ipv6: Use hash-threshold instead of modulo-N")
