Subject: ipv4: Do not allow MAIN to be alias for new LOCAL w/ custom rules

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com>


[ Upstream commit 5350d54f6cd12eaff623e890744c79b700bd3f17 ]

In the case of custom rules being present we need to handle the case of the
LOCAL table being intialized after the new rule has been added.  To address
that I am adding a new check so that we can make certain we don't use an
alias of MAIN for LOCAL when allocating a new table.
