ipv6: enforce flowi6_oif usage in ip6_dst_lookup_tail()
[ Upstream commit 6f21c96a78b835259546d8f3fb4edff0f651d478 ] The current implementation of ip6_dst_lookup_tail basically ignore the egress ifindex match: if the saddr is set, ip6_route_output() purposefully ignores flowi6_oif, due to the commit d46a9d678e4c ("net: ipv6: Dont add RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag if saddr set"), if the saddr is 'any' the first route lookup in ip6_dst_lookup_tail fails, but upon failure a second lookup will be performed with saddr set, thus ignoring the ifindex constraint. This commit adds an output route lookup function variant, which allows the caller to specify lookup flags, and modify ip6_dst_lookup_tail() to enforce the ifindex match on the second lookup via said helper. ip6_route_output() becames now a static inline function build on top of ip6_route_output_flags(); as a side effect, out-of-tree modules need now a GPL license to access the output route lookup functionality.
