as per https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/1370

4.1.21-v7+ #872 now has ipv6_subtrees support. I have tested it for
the presence of "from" routes and on the pi2 and pi3

root at pi2:/home/pi# ip -6 route | grep from
default from 2001:551:6045:bd:1ccf:b9bb:e8da:2c77 via
fe80::16cc:20ff:fee5:64c2 dev eth0  proto 42  metric 1024
default from 2601:641:4103:56c0::/60 via fe80::16cc:20ff:fee5:64c2 dev
eth0  proto 42  metric 1024
2601:641:4103:56c0::/60 from 2601:641:4103:56c0::/64 via
fe80::120d:7fff:fe64:c992 dev eth0  proto 42  metric 1024

I am confused on one point, however. What is the ongoing purpose of
these policy routes that still exist if ipv6_subtrees is enabled?

0: from all lookup local
100: from 2001:551:6045:bd:1ccf:b9bb:e8da:2c77 lookup 10
101: from 2601:641:4103:56c0::/60 lookup 11
32766: from all lookup main

AND:

It turns out (I hope) the problems I was having on the bug 1371, was
not having a hefty enough power supply to feed the usb sticks.
