[PATCH 3.11 44/66] ipv6: fill rt6i_gateway with nexthop address

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Julian Anastasov <ja@xxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 550bab42f83308c9d6ab04a980cc4333cef1c8fa ]

Make sure rt6i_gateway contains nexthop information in
all routes returned from lookup or when routes are directly
attached to skb for generated ICMP packets.

The effect of this patch should be a faster version of
rt6_nexthop() and the consideration of local addresses as
nexthop.
