Subject: net: ipv4: dst for local input routes should use l3mdev if relevant

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit f5a0aab84b74de68523599817569c057c7ac1622 ]

IPv4 output routes already use l3mdev device instead of loopback for dst's if it is applicable. Change local input routes to do the same.

This fixes icmp responses for unreachable UDP ports which are directed to the wrong table after commit 9d1a6c4ea43e4 because local_input routes use the loopback device. Moving from ingress device to loopback loses the L3 domain causing responses based on the dst to get to lost.
