 </TASK>

The running kernel has CONFIG_IP_MROUTE_MULTIPLE_TABLES disabled, and
the sanity check for such build is still too loose.

Address the issue consolidating the relevant sanity check in a single
helper regardless of the kernel configuration. Also share it between
the ipv4 and ipv6 code.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-38032 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
	https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1c518ae98302ab37786d5ba5d43e9ac6d6f894e3
