ipv6: Stop rt6_info from using inet_peer's metrics
inet_peer is indexed by the dst address alone. However, the fib6 tree could have multiple routing entries (rt6_info) for the same dst. For example, 1. A /128 dst via multiple gateways. 2. A RTF_CACHE route cloned from a /128 route. In the above cases, all of them will share the same metrics and step on each other. This patch will steer away from inet_peer's metrics and use dst_cow_metrics_generic() for everything. Change Highlights: 1. Remove rt6_cow_metrics() which currently acquires metrics from inet_peer for DST_HOST route (i.e. /128 route). 2. Add rt6i_pmtu to take care of the pmtu update to avoid creating a full size metrics just to override the RTAX_MTU. 3. After (2), the RTF_CACHE route can also share the metrics with its dst.from route, by: dst_init_metrics(&cache_rt->dst, dst_metrics_ptr(cache_rt->dst.from), true); 4. Stop creating RTF_CACHE route by cloning another RTF_CACHE route. Instead, directly clone from rt->dst. [ Currently, cloning from another RTF_CACHE is only possible during rt6_do_redirect(). Also, the old clone is removed from the tree immediately after the new clone is added. ] In case of cloning from an older redirect RTF_CACHE, it should work as before. In case of cloning from an older pmtu RTF_CACHE, this patch will forget the pmtu and re-learn it (if there is any) from the redirected route. The _rt6i_peer and DST_METRICS_FORCE_OVERWRITE will be removed in the next cleanup patch.
