net: Do not route unicast IP packets twice
Packets marked with 'offload_l3_fwd_mark' were already forwarded by a capable device and should not be forwarded again by the kernel. Therefore, have the kernel consume them. The check is performed in ip{,6}_forward_finish() in order to allow the kernel to process such packets in ip{,6}_forward() and generate required exceptions. For example, ICMP redirects.
