This is wrong, all kernels (2.2, 2.4, 2.5) treat 2 as 1,
i.e. only 1 and 0 are enough to distinguish the two possible states:
enable/disable source address validation. As for all/rp_filter, it
is only a flag that says "0 disables the spoofing check for all
interfaces". include/linux/inetdevice.h is a good source for
information about whether 0 or 1 as value for all/XXX changes
globally the feature for all interfaces. For rp_filter it is 0,
for send_redirects it is 1.
