ipv6: prevent user from adding cached routes
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
Cached routes should only be created by the system when receiving pmtu
discovery or ip redirect msg. Users should not be allowed to create
cached routes.

Furthermore, after the patch series to move cached routes into exception
table, user added cached routes will trigger the following warning in
fib6_add():

So we fix this by failing the attemp to add cached routes from userspace
with returning EINVAL error.
