[Babel-users] IPV6_SUBTREES vs policy routing

I can confirm this patch does the right thing on x86_64, and that the
current kernels on the pi3 and pi2 now also support IPV6_SUBTREES
correctly.

The wifi on the pi3 *sucks rocks* in adhoc mode from a bufferbloat
perspective, even worse than the ath9k. It does support a usb ethernet
and a few other usb wifi chips, I'm going to try those - but as a
little quick and dirty test router the only problem I've had with
loading it up with 3 usb sticks and ethernet was in the power supply.
I currently have it successfully using an ethernet dongle, one usb
flash stick and one external wifi adaptor.

 I am told IPV6_SUBTREEs is now in the odroid c2 kernel tree, but they
have not put out a binary yet.

I am curious as to what the behavior should be for source specific ipv4?
