[PATCH 1/1] ipv6 : ip6mr.c : Fix can't match the IPv6 multicast packets with input net device in netfilter FORWARD chain.

[Jun Zhao <mypopydev@gmail.com>]

Current kernel change the skb's net device with output device before netfilter FORWARD chain,
that will lead to can't match the IPv6 multicast packets with input net device in netfilter
FORWARD chain.

the test case for reproduce this issue as follow:

IPv6 multicast udp stream from eth0(input device) to eth1(output device)

Dst Addr: Port
{ff03::4}:6789 --->

                    Router
         +---------------------------+
-------> | [eth0] --FORWARD--> [eth1]| ------->
         +---------------------------+

ip6tables -I FORWARD -p udp -i eth0 -o eth1 --dst ff03::4 -j ACCEPT [first rules ]
ip6tables -A FORWARD -p udp -i eth1 -o eth1 --dst ff03::4 -j ACCEPT [second rules]

Before fix this issue, it will match the second rules not the first rules. you can used
command "ip6tables -L -vnx" to check the match result.
