This definitely sounds like it is in the realm of userspace policy.
The routing daemon should adjust the routes, as appropriate, if
a link loses it's IF_RUNNING and it wants to use a backup route.

IFF_RUNNING does not cause routes to get flushed, only IFF_UP events
do.

Changing routes based upon IFF_RUNNING state is a userland policy
issue.
