bridge: fix multicast router rlist endless loop
commit 1a040eac upstream. Since the addition of sysfs multicast router support if one set multicast_router to "2" more than once, then the port would be added to the hlist every time and could end up linking to itself and thus causing an endless loop for rlist walkers. So to reproduce just do: echo 2 > multicast_router; echo 2 > multicast_router; in a bridge port and let some igmp traffic flow, for me it hangs up in br_multicast_flood(). Fix this by adding a check in br_multicast_add_router() if the port is already linked. The reason this didn't happen before the addition of multicast_router sysfs entries is because there's a !hlist_unhashed check that prevents it.
