net/ipv6: Allow onlink routes to have a device mismatch if it is the default route
[ Upstream commit 4ed591c8ab44e711e56b8e021ffaf4f407c045f5 ] The intent of ip6_route_check_nh_onlink is to make sure the gateway given for an onlink route is not actually on a connected route for a different interface (e.g., 2001:db8:1::/64 is on dev eth1 and then an onlink route has a via 2001:db8:1::1 dev eth2). If the gateway lookup hits the default route then it most likely will be a different interface than the onlink route which is ok. Update ip6_route_check_nh_onlink to disregard the device mismatch if the gateway lookup hits the default route. Turns out the existing onlink tests are passing because there is no default route or it is an unreachable default, so update the onlink tests to have a default route other than unreachable.
