Can you make an inline for the flowlabel conversion. Something like this:

diff --git a/include/net/ipv6.h b/include/net/ipv6.h
index 798558fd1681..e36eca2f8531 100644
--- a/include/net/ipv6.h
+++ b/include/net/ipv6.h
@@ -284,6 +284,11 @@ struct ip6_flowlabel {
#define IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MASK cpu_to_be32(0x000FFFFF)
#define IPV6_FLOWLABEL_STATELESS_FLAG cpu_to_be32(0x00080000)

+static inline u32 flowi6_get_flowlabel(const struct flowi6 *fl6)
+{
+ return (__force u32)(fl6->flowlabel & IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MASK);
+}
+
#define IPV6_TCLASS_MASK (IPV6_FLOWINFO_MASK & ~IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MASK)
#define IPV6_TCLASS_SHIFT 20

From there we can fix the flow struct to have flowinfo instead of
flowlabel and use the macro to hide the conversion.
