ipv4: fix route update on metric change. 

Since commit af4d768ad2 ("net/ipv4: Add support for specifying metric
of connected routes"), when updating an IP address with a different metric,
the associated connected route is updated, too.

Still, the mentioned commit doesn't handle properly some corner cases:

$ ip addr add dev eth0 192.168.1.0/24
$ ip addr add dev eth0 192.168.2.1/32 peer 192.168.2.2
$ ip addr add dev eth0 192.168.3.1/24
$ ip addr change dev eth0 192.168.1.0/24 metric 10
$ ip addr change dev eth0 192.168.2.1/32 peer 192.168.2.2 metric 10
$ ip addr change dev eth0 192.168.3.1/24 metric 10
$ ip -4 route
192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.0
192.168.2.2 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.1
192.168.3.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.1 metric 10

Only the last route is correctly updated.

The problem is the current test in fib_modify_prefix_metric():

	if (!(dev->flags & IFF_UP) ||
	    ifa->ifa_flags & (IFA_F_SECONDARY | IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE) ||
	    ipv4_is_zeronet(prefix) ||
	    prefix == ifa->ifa_local || ifa->ifa_prefixlen == 32)

Which should be the logical 'not' of the pre-existing test in
fib_add_ifaddr():

	if (!ipv4_is_zeronet(prefix) && !(ifa->ifa_flags & IFA_F_SECONDARY) &&
	    (prefix != addr || ifa->ifa_prefixlen < 32))

To properly negate the original expression, we need to change the last
logical 'or' to a logical 'and'.
