Guillaume Nault ec20b28300 ipv4: Set scope explicitly in ip_route_output().
Add a "scope" parameter to ip_route_output() so that callers don't have
to override the tos parameter with the RTO_ONLINK flag if they want a
local scope.

This will allow converting flowi4_tos to dscp_t in the future, thus
allowing static analysers to flag invalid interactions between
"tos" (the DSCP bits) and ECN.

Only three users ask for local scope (bonding, arp and atm). The others
continue to use RT_SCOPE_UNIVERSE. While there, add a comment to warn
users about the limitations of ip_route_output().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
