bgpd: bgpd-set-v4-nexthop-for-v6-peering.patch
BGP: While advertising v4 prefixes over a v6 session, set the correct v4 nexthop.
ISSUE:
For an IPv6 peer, BGPd sets the local router-id as the next-hop's v4 address.
This is incorrect as the router-id may not be a valid next-hop to be included
in UPDATEs that contain v4 prefixes.
PATCH:
Set the v4 address in the next-hop field based on the interface that the
peering is on (directly connected interface or loopback).
