  MFC     r196569
  
  When multiple interfaces exist in the system, with each interface having
  an IPv6 address assigned to it, and if an incoming packet received on
  one interface has a packet destination address that belongs to another
  interface, the routing table is consulted to determine how to reach this
  packet destination. Since the packet destination is an interface address,
  the route table will return a host route with the loopback interface as
  rt_ifp. The input code must recognize this fact, instead of using the
  loopback interface, the input code performs a search to find the right
  interface that owns the given IPv6 address.
