Ido Schimmel 9217d8c2fe ipv6: Regenerate host route according to node pointer upon loopback up
When the loopback device is brought back up we need to check if the host
route attached to the address is still in the FIB and regenerate one in
case it's not.

Host routes using the loopback device are always inserted into and
removed from the FIB under RTNL (under which this function is called),
so we can test their node pointer instead of the reference count in
order to check if the route is in the FIB or not.

Tested using the following script from Nicolas mentioned in
commit a220445f9f ("ipv6: correctly add local routes when lo goes up"):

$ ip link add dummy1 type dummy
$ ip link set dummy1 up
$ ip link set lo down ; ip link set lo up

The host route is correctly regenerated.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
