mlxsw: spectrum_router: Remove unnecessary prefix lengths from LPM tree
In commit fc922bb ("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Use one LPM tree for
all virtual routers") I tried to make sure only used prefix lengths are
present in the LPM tree shared between all virtual routers.
However, this optimization had to be removed in commit a69518c
("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Avoid expensive lookup during route removal"),
since determining the used prefix lengths required us to traverse all
the active virtual routers, which could result in a hung task depending
on the number of VRFs and whether routes were removed due to abort or
not.
Re-introduce the optimization by moving the prefix usage accounting from
the virtual routers to the LPM tree, as this accounting is only used in
order to determine the tree's structure.
To make the sharing of the trees more explicit, the two trees (for IPv4
and IPv6) are stored in the shared router struct and upon the creation
of a virtual router it is immediately bound to both.
