I first named the new function fib6_flush_trees but then realized this
function itself gets called by rt_genid_bump_all, so I left the name.
I'll append a patch to generalize those names, because it should not
matter for ipv4 or ipv6 how it is ensured that sockets drop their cached
dst_entries.

Thanks,
Hannes
