The driver currently uses the 'RTNH_F_OFFLOAD' flag for both routes and nexthops, which is cumbersome and unnecessary now that we have separate flag for the route itself. Separate the offload indication for nexthops from routes and call it whenever the offload state within the nexthop group changes. Note that IPv6 (unlike IPv4) does not share the same nexthop group between different routes, whereas mlxsw does. Therefore, whenever the offload indication within an IPv6 nexthop group changes, all the linked routes need to be updated.

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 Restructured Text 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.
