ipv6: Move gateway checks to a fib6_nh setting
The gateway setting is not per fib6_info entry but per-fib6_nh. Add a new fib_nh_has_gw flag to fib6_nh and convert references to RTF_GATEWAY to the new flag. For IPv6 address the flag is cheaper than checking that nh_gw is non-0 like IPv4 does. While this increases fib6_nh by 8-bytes, the effective allocation size of a fib6_info is unchanged. The 8 bytes is recovered later with a fib_nh_common change. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
