Subject: net: ipv4: fix regression in local-broadcast routes
Origin: https://lore.kernel.org/regressions/20250826121750.8451-1-oscmaes92@gmail.com/
Commit 9e30ecf23b1b ("net: ipv4: fix incorrect MTU in broadcast routes")
introduced a regression where local-broadcast packets would have their
gateway set in __mkroute_output, which was caused by fi = NULL being
removed.
Fix this by resetting the fib_info for local-broadcast packets. This
preserves the intended changes for directed-broadcast packets.
