Sabrina Dubroca f547fac624 ipv6: rate-limit probes for neighbourless routes
When commit 270972554c ("[IPV6]: ROUTE: Add Router Reachability
Probing (RFC4191).") introduced router probing, the rt6_probe() function
required that a neighbour entry existed. This neighbour entry is used to
record the timestamp of the last probe via the ->updated field.

Later, commit 2152caea71 ("ipv6: Do not depend on rt->n in rt6_probe().")
removed the requirement for a neighbour entry. Neighbourless routes skip
the interval check and are not rate-limited.

This patch adds rate-limiting for neighbourless routes, by recording the
timestamp of the last probe in the fib6_info itself.

Fixes: 2152caea71 ("ipv6: Do not depend on rt->n in rt6_probe().")

README

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
