Ido Schimmel c29913109c selftests: fib_nexthops: Fix creation of non-FDB nexthops
The test creates non-FDB nexthops without a nexthop device which leads
to the expected failure, but for the wrong reason:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t "ipv6_fdb_grp_fcnal ipv4_fdb_grp_fcnal" -v

 IPv6 fdb groups functional

 Error: Nexthop id does not exist.
 TEST: Route add with fdb nexthop                                    [ OK ]

In addition, as can be seen in the above output, a couple of IPv4 test
cases used the non-FDB nexthops (14 and 15) when they intended to use
the FDB nexthops (16 and 17). These test cases only passed because
failure was expected, but they failed for the wrong reason.

Fix the test to create the non-FDB nexthops with a nexthop device and
adjust the IPv4 test cases to use the FDB nexthops instead of the
non-FDB nexthops.

Output after the fix:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t "ipv6_fdb_grp_fcnal ipv4_fdb_grp_fcnal" -v

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
