Thanks Martin.
Changing __rt6_find_exception_xxx() might not be easy cause other
callers of this function does not really need to back off and use
another saddr.
And the validation of the result is a bit different for different callers.
What about add a new helper for the above 2 cases and just call that
from both places?
