Xin Long 233ba28e18 route: check sysctl_fib_multipath_use_neigh earlier than hash
[ Upstream commit 6174a30df1 ]

Prior to this patch, when one packet is hashed into path [1]
(hash <= nh_upper_bound) and it's neigh is dead, it will try
path [2]. However, if path [2]'s neigh is alive but it's
hash > nh_upper_bound, it will not return this alive path.
This packet will never be sent even if path [2] is alive.

 3.3.3.1/24:
  nexthop via 1.1.1.254 dev eth1 weight 1 <--[1] (dead neigh)
  nexthop via 2.2.2.254 dev eth2 weight 1 <--[2]

With sysctl_fib_multipath_use_neigh set is supposed to find an
available path respecting to the l3/l4 hash. But if there is
no available route with this hash, it should at least return
an alive route even with other hash.

This patch is to fix it by processing fib_multipath_use_neigh
earlier than the hash check, so that it will at least return
an alive route if there is when fib_multipath_use_neigh is
enabled. It's also compatible with before when there are alive
routes with the l3/l4 hash.

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.
