[IPV6]: V6 route events reported with wrong netlink PID and seq number
Essentially netlink at the moment always reports a pid and sequence of 0 always for v6 route activities. To understand the repurcassions of this look at: http://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-dev/2005-June/003507.html While fixing this, i took the liberty to resolve the outstanding issue of IPV6 routes inserted via ioctls to have the correct pids as well. This patch tries to behave as close as possible to the v4 routes i.e maintains whatever PID the socket issuing the command owns as opposed to the process. That made the patch a little bulky. I have tested against both netlink derived utility to add/del routes as well as ioctl derived one. The Quagga folks have tested against quagga. This fixes the problem and so far hasnt been detected to introduce any new issues.
