mlxsw: spectrum_router: Avoid expensive lookup during route removal

In commit fc922bb ("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Use one LPM tree for all virtual routers") I increased the scale of supported VRFs by having all of them share the same LPM tree. In order to avoid look-ups for prefix lengths that don't exist, each route removal would trigger an aggregation across all the active virtual routers to see which prefix lengths are in use and which aren't and structure the tree accordingly. With the way the data structures are currently laid out, this is a very expensive operation. When preformed repeatedly - due to the invocation of the abort mechanism - and with enough VRFs, this can result in a hung task. For now, avoid this optimization until it can be properly re-added in net-next.
