LU-13780 lnet: Leverage peer aliveness more efficiently

When an LNet router is revived after going down, remote peers may
discover it is alive before we do. Thus, remote peers may use it
as a next-hop, and we may start receiving messages from it while we
still consider it to be dead. We should mark router peers as alive
when we receive a message from them.

If an LNet router does not respond to a discovery ping, then we
currently mark all of its NIs as DOWN. This can actually slow down
the process of returning a route to service. If we receive a message
from a router, in the manner described above, then we can safely
return the router to service. We already set the status of the router
NI we received the message from to UP, but the remote NIs will still
be DOWN and thus the route will be considered down until we get a
reply to the next discovery ping.

When selecting a route, we only consider the aliveness of a gateway's
remote NIs if avoid_asym_router_failure is enabled and the route is
single-hop. In this case, as long as the gateway has at least one
alive NI on the remote network then the route is considered UP. In
the situation described above, we know the router has at least one
NI alive because it was used to forward a message from a remote peer.
Thus, when we receive a forwarded message from a router, we can
reasonably set the NI status of all of its NIs that are on the same
peer net as the message originator to UP. This does not impact the
route status of any multi-hop routes because we do not consider the
aliveness of remote NIs for multi-hop routes.

Similarly, we can set the cached lr_alive value to up for any routes
whose lr_net matches the net ID of the message originator NID. This
variable is converted to an atomic_t to get rid of the need for
global locking when updating it.
