    ipv6: Handle route deletion notification · d2f0c9b1
    Ido Schimmel authored
    For the purpose of route offload, when a single route is deleted, it is
    only of interest if it is the first route in the node or if it is
    sibling to such a route.
    
    In the first case, distinguish between several possibilities:
    
    1. Route is the last route in the node. Emit a delete notification
    
    2. Route is followed by a non-multipath route. Emit a replace
    notification for the non-multipath route.
    
    3. Route is followed by a multipath route. Emit a replace notification
    for the multipath route.
    
    In the second case, only emit a delete notification to ensure the route
    is no longer used as a valid nexthop.
