Coverity is spotting that the same condition is evaluated first
in the if() then in the conditional expression. So yes it is a bug.
Would prefer the title of
examples/l3fwd: fix duplicate expression for default nexthop
Don't think the default nexthop was ever tested. If it was then
hops[i] would have never been updated. Probably would just get previous
value so it worked.
