__mkroute_input() uses fib_validate_source() to trigger an icmp redirect. My understanding is that fib_validate_source() is used to know if the src address and the gateway address are on the same link. For that, fib_validate_source() returns 1 (same link) or 0 (not the same network). __mkroute_input() is the only user of these positive values, all other callers only look if the returned value is negative.
