Should the #else branch also get a stub for ip6_del_rt_reason()?The ip6_del_rt() stub exists only because __remove_nexthop_fib() in net/ipv4/nexthop.c is obj-y and calls it with CONFIG_IPV6=n. The new helper has no caller outside net/ipv6/, so a stub for it would be dead code. I would rather add one when a caller needs it.
But why put it under '#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6)' in the first place? Just move it above, next to ip6_ins_rt()...
