I take that back.

I think RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE should only be set if cfg->fc_ifindex is set.

AFAICS the latter condition should not be needed. The related
information is passed all way down to rt6_score_route(), where it's
really used:

        m = rt6_check_dev(rt, oif);
        if (!m && (strict & RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE))
                return RT6_NUD_FAIL_HARD;

and 'm' can be 0 only if oif is set: RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE has no effect
ifindex is set.


For the simplified lookup yes that is true. Lookups that go through ip6_pol_route it is not and for my comment above I was thinking about this latter case.

Anyways, your change is fine for the ip6_nh_lookup_table case.
