[PATCH v2 net-next] ipv4: ip_forward: perform skb->pkt_type check at the beginning

[Denis Kirjanov <kda@linux-powerpc.org>]

Packets which have L2 address different from ours should be
already filtered before entering into ip_forward().

Perform that check at the beginning to avoid processing such packets.
