The need for a second notifier stems from the append case? versus using
call_fib6_entry_notifiers and letting the nsiblings fallout from
rt->fib6_nsiblings? The append case is a weird thing for userspace to
maintain order, but it seems like the offload case should not care.

Also, .multipath_rt seems redundant with .nsiblings > 1
