When receive a redirect message and call rt6_do_redirect(), we allocate
a new rt6_info and set new flags and gateway info, but not update these
info to fib6_info.
Then if a user try to get the route info via `ip route get`, he will still
get the old default gateway, because inet6_rtm_getroute() get gateway info
from fib6_info.
