nh should be renamed to nhc in Patch 4?

I assume "bool for_ipv4" will be used in a later patch also, can it be
removed from the current patch?

Off topic question question,

After "net/ipv6: Flip FIB entries to fib6_info" (which was a great step forward),
any update on the followup in renaming "struct fib6_info *rt" to
"struct fib6_info *f6i"?
