I am trying to understand why there is a need to restart fib6_lookup() after
getting rt with RTF_CACHE.

I have adapted davem's udpflood test
(https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net_test_tools.git&k=ZVNjlDMF0FElm4dQtryO4A%3D%3D%0A&r=%2Faj1ZOQObwbmtLwlDw3XzQ%3D%3D%0A&m=j4KoKiV%2FLl4Dx6wOKiDLZPDODlbMJ5UBybTiTzIRHTM%3D%0A&s=68cac2d1d239e23b104065419b4ad89ea80bc1401571034ccce3b4a52a98a8d3) to
support IPv6 and here is the result:

#root > time ./udpflood -l 20000000 -c 250 2401:db00:face:face::2

Before:
real    0m33.224s
user    0m2.941s
sys     0m30.232s

After:
real    0m31.517s
user    0m2.938s
sys     0m28.536s
