Bah,

This got applied by DaveM. Unfortunately we use this field so we'll have
to add this back in.

Hi,
This patch removes an unused field (flags) from struct flowi;
it seems that this "flags" field was used once in the past for
multipath routing with
FLOWI_FLAG_MULTIPATHOLDROUTE flag  (which does no longer exist);
however, the "flags"
field of struct flowi is not used anymore.


Regards,
Rami Rosen
