Thanks for the explanation.

Can rt6_check() just return NULL if the passed in cookie is already
invalid (i.e. 0)?  It should have no need to call rt6_get_cookie_safe()
if the passed in cookie is already invalid, or it is still needed?

Instead of having another bool 'false', I was mostly thinking having one
invalid state 'cookie 0' will be easier to read and code later.  However,
it is not curical.  Lets get this fix in.
