Subject: [PATCH] fib_trie: Use empty_children instead of counting empty nodes
 in stats collection

It doesn't make much sense to count the pointers ourselves when
empty_children already has a count for the number of NULL pointers stored
in the tnode.  As such save ourselves the cycles and just use
empty_children.
