Subject: Back-porting request

Hello,

I'm requesting this commit to be back-ported to v4.14:
---
commit 5b18f1289808fee5d04a7e6ecf200189f41a4db6
Author: Stephen Suryaputra <[email protected]>

ipv4: reset rt_iif for recirculated mcast/bcast out pkts

Multicast or broadcast egress packets have rt_iif set to the oif. These
packets might be recirculated back as input and lookup to the raw
sockets may fail because they are bound to the incoming interface
(skb_iif). If rt_iif is not zero, during the lookup, inet_iif() function
returns rt_iif instead of skb_iif. Hence, the lookup fails.

v2: Make it non vrf specific (David Ahern). Reword the changelog to
reflect it.

We found the issue in that release and the above commit is on
linux-stable. On the discussion behind this commit, please see:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg581045.html

I think after the following diff is needed on top of the above commit
for v4.14:

---
diff --git a/net/ipv4/route.c b/net/ipv4/route.c
index 4d85a4fdfdb0..ad2718c1624e 100644

Thank you,

Stephen.

This only worked for 4.14, this also needs to go to 4.19. Can you
provide a working backport for both trees so that I can apply it? I'll
go drop the one I added, as it breaks the build :(

thanks,
