IPVS setups with local client and remote tunnel server need
to create exception for the local virtual IP. What we do is to
change PMTU from 64KB (on "lo") to 1460 in the common case.

Fixes: 45e4fd26683c ("ipv6: Only create RTF_CACHE routes after encountering pmtu exception")
Fixes: 7343ff31ebf0 ("ipv6: Don't create clones of host routes.")

Note: I failed to build 2.6.38 kernel for the test but I think
commit 7343ff31ebf0 looks as the one that added the restriction
to change PMTU for local IPs.
So, I'm not sure from how long time the issue with local IPVS
clients and tunnelling method exists. May be it worked between
2.6.28 and 2.6.37.
