I found the cause. The gateway 172.16.1.1 is issuing an ICMP Redirect
Why this is observed, or not dropped when eth0 is brought down, or
something else that's different from 11.4 to 12.1
Internet Control Message Protocol
Type: 5 (Redirect)
Code: 0 (Redirect for network)
Checksum: 0xfbd0 [correct]
Gateway address: 172.16.1.2 (172.16.1.2)
Internet Protocol, Src: 172.16.23.56 (172.16.23.56), Dst: 71.74.56.78
(71.74.56.78)
I set net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects = 0 as a work-around.
The default on 12.1 is the same as 11.4.
