Setting net.ipv6.conf.<interface>.accept_ra=2 causes the kernel
to accept RAs even when forwarding is enabled. However, enabling
forwarding purges all default routes on the system, breaking
connectivity until the next RA is received. Fix this by not
purging default routes on interfaces that have accept_ra=2.

Because we do not have any locks for dst_entry, we cannot change
essential structure in the entry; e.g., we cannot change reference
to other entity.

To fix this issue, split 'from' and 'expires' field in dst_entry
out of union.  Once it is 'from' is assigned in the constructor,
keep the reference until the very last stage of the life time of
the object.

Of course, it is unsafe to change 'from', so make rt6_set_from simple
just for fresh entries.

They will be created at output, if ever needed. This avoids creating
empty neighbor entries when TPROXYing/Forwarding packets for addresses
that are not even directly reachable.

Note that IPv4 already handles it this way. No neighbor entries are
created for local input.

I believe this commit from 2008 was incorrect:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=398bcbebb6f721ac308df1e3d658c0029bb74503

When CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTER_PREF is disabled, the kernel should follow
RFC4861 section 6.3.6: if no route is NUD_VALID, then traffic should be
sprayed across all routers (indirectly triggering NUD) until one of them
becomes NUD_VALID.

However, the following experiment demonstrates that this does not work:

1) Connect to an IPv6 network.
2) Change the router's MAC (and link-local) address.

The kernel will lock onto the first router and never try the new one, even
if the first becomes unreachable.  This patch fixes the problem by
allowing rt6_check_neigh() to return 0; if all routers return 0, then
rt6_select() will fall back to round-robin behavior.

This patch should have no effect when CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTER_PREF=y.

Note that rt6_check_neigh() is only used in a boolean context, so I've
changed its return type accordingly.

Each nexthop is added like a single route in the routing table. All routes

ECMP routes can be added in one shot, with RTA_MULTIPATH attribute or one after
