When passing interface parameter to ping -6:
$ ping -6 ::11:141:84:9 -I eth2
Results in:
PING ::11:141:84:10(::11:141:84:10) from ::11:141:84:9 eth2: 56 data bytes
ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument
ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument
Initialize the fl6's outgoing interface (OIF) before triggering
ip6_datagram_send_ctl. Don't wipe fl6 after ip6_datagram_send_ctl() as
changes in fl6 that may happen in the function are overwritten explicitly.
Update comment accordingly.
