This change is meant to add a control for forwarding skb from local.
By default, ip forward will not receive the pakcet to/from the local.
But in some special cases, for example:
-
|  ovs-bridge  gw-port |  <---->   kube-proxy(iptables) |
-
Ovs sends the packet to the gateway, which requires iptables for nat,
such as kube-proxy (iptables), and then sends it back to the gateway
through routing for further processing in ovs.
