Subject: [PATCH net] ipv6: change route cache aging logic

From: Wei Wang <weiwan@...gle.com>

In current route cache aging logic, if a route has both RTF_EXPIRE and
RTF_GATEWAY set, the route will only be removed if the neighbor cache
has no RTN_ROUTE flag. Otherwise, even if the route has expired, it
won't get deleted.
Fix this logic to always check if the route has expired first and then
do the gateway neighbor cache check if previous check decide to not
remove the exception entry.

Fixes: 1859bac04fb6 ("ipv6: remove from fib tree aged out RTF_CACHE dst")
