Thank you, Jakub!

I also noticed that recently, self-connect-ipv6 became slightly flaky:
https://netdev.bots.linux.dev/flakes.html?br-cnt=75&tn-needle=tcp-ao

Seems unrelated to select()+poll selftests changes, but rather to
timings in the kernel:
# # 1249[lib/proc.c:213]    Snmp6            Ip6OutNoRoutes: 0 => 1

It seems that the test relied on kernel adding a link-local route with
a loopback interface, but probably adding the interface got faster.
Seems like a trivial two-line fix by manually adding the link-local
route in userspace. Though, can't reproduce that flake locally on
thousands of runs.

Should I send the potential fix now for -net or wait until the merge
window closes and send for -net-next?

Thanks,
             Dmitry
