This patchset performs two changes in the bpf_fib_lookup() helper:

1. Patch #6: Aligns IPv6 with IPv4 with regards to output route lookups
(i.e., BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT) so that it always resolves a route whose
nexthop device matches the specified oif.

2. Patch #8: Allows output route lookups for IPv6 link-local addresses.

The rest of the patches perform small changes in the existing
bpf_fib_lookup() selftest (patches #1-#4) and add tests for the new
functionality (patches #5, #7 and #9).
tbh I would send the whole thing through bpf or net trees.
