Alex Efros reported rpfilter module doesn't match following packets:
IN=br.qemu SRC=192.168.2.1 DST=192.168.2.255 [ .. ]
(netfilter bugzilla #814).

Problem is that network stack arranges for the locally generated broadcasts
to appear on the interface they were sent out, so the IFF_LOOPBACK check
doesn't trigger.

As -m rpfilter is restricted to PREROUTING, we can check for existing
skb_dst instead, it catches locally-generated broad/multicast case, too.

I'd prefer if this is narrowed down to locally generated traffic in
the same way we do in nf_conntrack_broadcast.c.
