Merge branch 'nexthop-refactor-and-fix-nexthop-selection-for-multipath-routes'
Benjamin Poirier says:
====================
nexthop: Refactor and fix nexthop selection for multipath routes
In order to select a nexthop for multipath routes, fib_select_multipath()
is used with legacy nexthops and nexthop_select_path_hthr() is used with
nexthop objects. Those two functions perform a validity test on the
neighbor related to each nexthop but their logic is structured differently.
This causes a divergence in behavior and nexthop_select_path_hthr() may
return a nexthop that failed the neighbor validity test even if there was
one that passed.
Refactor nexthop_select_path_hthr() to make it more similar to
fib_select_multipath() and fix the problem mentioned above.
