As explained in commit fc25996e6f46 ("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Increase
scale of IPv6 nexthop groups"), each nexthop group is hashed by XOR-ing
the interface indexes of all the member nexthop devices.
To avoid many different nexthop groups ending up using the same key, the
above commit started hashing the interface indexes themselves before
they are XOR-ed.
However, in cases in which there are many nexthop groups that all use
the same nexthop device and only differ in the gateway IP, we can still
end up in a situation in which all the groups are using the same key.
This eventually leads to -EBUSY error from rhashtable during insertion.
Improve the situation by also making the gateway IP part of the key.

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.
