ipv6: Fix use of anycast address with loopback [ Upstream commit aea23c323d89836bcdcee67e49def997ffca043b ] Thomas reported a regression with IPv6 and anycast using the following reproducer: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding ip -6 a add fc12::1/16 dev lo sleep 2 echo "pinging lo" ping6 -c 2 fc12:: The conversion of addrconf_f6i_alloc to use ip6_route_info_create missed the use of fib6_is_reject which checks addresses added to the loopback interface and sets the REJECT flag as needed. Update fib6_is_reject for loopback checks to handle RTF_ANYCAST addresses.
