Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] nexthop: Do not flush blackhole nexthops when loopback goes down

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@...dia.com>

Patch #1 prevents blackhole nexthops from being flushed when the
loopback device goes down given that as far as user space is concerned,
these nexthops do not have a nexthop device.

Patch #2 adds a test case.

There are no regressions in fib_nexthops.sh with this change:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh
 ...
 Tests passed: 165
 Tests failed:   0

    down
