H A Dip6_output.cdiff e16e888b525503be05b3aea64190e8b3bdef44d0 Tue May 05 05:36:59 CDT 2015 Markus Stenberg <markus.stenberg@iki.fi> ipv6: Fixed source specific default route handling.

If there are only IPv6 source specific default routes present, the
host gets -ENETUNREACH on e.g. connect() because ip6_dst_lookup_tail
calls ip6_route_output first, and given source address any, it fails,
and ip6_route_get_saddr is never called.

The change is to use the ip6_route_get_saddr, even if the initial
ip6_route_output fails, and then doing ip6_route_output _again_ after
we have appropriate source address available.

Note that this is '99% fix' to the problem; a correct fix would be to
do route lookups only within addrconf.c when picking a source address,
and never call ip6_route_output before source address has been
populated.
