'ip6 dscp set $v' in an nftables outpute route chain has no effect.
While nftables does detect the dscp change and calls the reroute hook.
But ip6_route_me_harder never sets the dscp/flowlabel:
flowlabel/dsfield routing rules are ignored and no reroute takes place.
Thanks to Yi Chen for an excellent reproducer script that I used
to validate this change.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
