ipv4, fib: pass LOOPBACK_IFINDEX instead of 0 to flowi4_iif
As suggested by Julian:
Simply, flowi4_iif must not contain 0, it does not
look logical to ignore all ip rules with specified iif.
because in fib_rule_match() we do:
if (rule->iifindex && (rule->iifindex != fl->flowi_iif))
goto out;
flowi4_iif should be LOOPBACK_IFINDEX by default.
We need to move LOOPBACK_IFINDEX to include/net/flow.h:
1) It is mostly used by flowi_iif
2) Fix the following compile error if we use it in flow.h
by the patches latter:
