I originally wanted to make it obvious that it's not an actual filter,
but:

...come on. That would be too simple.

No, my original understanding was that strict checking didn't imply
filtering. It does, and the current kernel implementation matches,
now also for RTM_F_CACHED. So yes, we can use it, and it doesn't cause
any unexpected behaviours with older kernels either. Sending v2. Thanks
for pointing this out.
