[PATCH] Set rtm_table to RT_TABLE_COMPAT for ipv6 for tables > 255

From: Kalash Nainwal
Date: Wed Feb 20 2019 - 19:23:08 EST


Set rtm_table to RT_TABLE_COMPAT for ipv6 for tables > 255 to
keep legacy software happy. This is similar to what was done for
ipv4 in commit 709772e6e065 ("net: Fix routing tables with
id > 255 for legacy software").
