Subject: [PATCH 1/1] IPv6: Fixed support for blackhole and prohibit routes

From: Kamala R <kamala@...stanetworks.com>

The behaviour of blackhole and prohibit routes has been corrected by setting the input and output
function pointers of the dst variable appropriately. For blackhole routes, they are set to
dst_discard and for prohibit routes they are set to ip6_pkt_prohibit and ip6_pkt_prohbit_out
respectively.
