Subject: [Patch v2] 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 to ip6_pkt_prohibit and
ip6_pkt_prohbit_out respectively for prohibit routes.

Changes from v1: Logic is the same. Changes made for readability and so it
looks pleasing.
