We will get rid of RTNL from RTM_NEWROUTE and SIOCADDRT. Then, we may be going to add a route tied to a dying nexthop. The nexthop itself is not freed during the RCU grace period, but if we link a route after __remove_nexthop_fib() is called for the nexthop, the route will be leaked. To avoid the race between IPv6 route addition under RCU vs nexthop deletion under RTNL, let's add a dead flag and protect it and nh->f6i_list with a spinlock. __remove_nexthop_fib() acquires the nexthop's spinlock and sets false to nh->dead, then calls ip6_del_rt() for the linked route one by one without the spinlock because fib6_purge_rt() acquires it later. While adding an IPv6 route, fib6_add() acquires the nexthop lock and checks the dead flag just before inserting the route.
