When we send a packet for our own local address on a non-loopback interface
(e.g. eth0), due to the change had been introduced from commit 0b922b7a829c
("net: original ingress device index in PKTINFO"), the original ingress
device index would be set as the loopback interface. However, the packet
should be considered as if it is being arrived via the sending interface
(eth0), otherwise it would break the expectation of the userspace
application (e.g. the DHCPRELEASE message from dhcp_release binary would
be ignored by the dnsmasq daemon)

When I upgrade to the 4.9, the dhcp_release could not release the dhcp
lease, the dnsmasq ignored all the DHCPRELEASE message which it think come
from lo. I think this is due to the commit 0b922b7a829c, which set the
IPCB(skb)->iif = skb->skb_iif in the ip_rcv()!
And I'm very sorry about forgetting checkpatch, I will resend the patch,
hope I'm not bothering you!
Thanks,
Wei Zhang
