[ Upstream commit 5b9e12dbf92b441b37136ea71dac59f05f2673a9 ]

a long time ago by the commit

  commit 93456b6d7753def8760b423ac6b986eb9d5a4a95
  Author: Denis V. Lunev <den@xxxxxxxxxx>
  Date:   Thu Jan 10 03:23:38 2008 -0800

    [IPV4]: Unify access to the routing tables.

the defenition of FIB_HASH_TABLE size has obtained wrong dependency:
it should depend upon CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES (as was in the original
code) but it was depended from CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH

This patch returns the situation to the original state.

The problem was spotted by Tingwei Liu.
