I think you need to implement some code first. The fastfwd has not
supported MPATH and tryforward also doesn't support it. For IPv4 you can
try to add some IPsec security policy to disable ip_tryforward. In this
case ip_forward() will be used, and it uses rtalloc_mpath_fib(), so,
probably, it will work.
