I was going to suggest a flag:

@@ -36,6 +36,7 @@ struct flowi_common {
  #define FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH            0x02
  #define FLOWI_FLAG_L3MDEV_SRC          0x04
  #define FLOWI_FLAG_SKIP_NH_OIF         0x08
+#define FLOWI_FLAG_NOT_OIF             0x10
         __u32   flowic_secid;
         struct flowi_tunnel flowic_tun_key;
  };


but there are a number of oif checks that would have to be enhanced with 
the flag check. Adding a flowic_not_oif member is certainly simpler and 
there is a 4-byte hole in the struct.

For IPv6 start with ip6_pol_route_lookup and modifying rt6_device_match
