Dinesh reported that RTA_MULTIPATH nexthops are 8-bytes larger with IPv6 than IPv4. The recent refactoring for multipath support in netlink messages does discriminate between non-multipath which needs the OIF and multipath which adds a rtnexthop struct for each hop making the RTA_OIF attribute redundant. Resolve by adding a flag to the info function to skip the oif for multipath.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
