net: restore ip source validation
when using policy routing and the skb mark: there are cases where a back path validation requires us to use a different routing table for src ip validation than the one used for mapping ingress dst ip. One such a case is transparent proxying where we pretend to be the destination system and therefore the local table is used for incoming packets but possibly a main table would be used on outbound. Make the default behavior to allow the above and if users need to turn on the symmetry via sysctl src_valid_mark Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@cyberus.ca> Signed-off-by: David S.
