br_handle_local_finish is called by NF_HOOK(...) after accepting the packet. If
the return value of NF_HOOK(...) is zero (i.e. the return value of
br_handle_local_finish), the packet is passed to the network stack. This
behavior conflicts with netfilter hooks which return NF_STOLEN/NF_QUEUE. In this
case, NF_HOOK(...) returns also zero (see nf_hook_slow) but
br_handle_local_finish was never called. The packet will still passed to the
network stack.

This is not a proper Signed-off-by: tag, you have to put your name
as well as your email address, similar to how it appears in the
"From: " field of your outgoing emails.

I think the input code was incorrectly assuming the model of that receive logic
should return NET_RX_SUCCESS(0) or NET_RX_DROP(1). (Note DECNET has same bug).

Rather than hardcode in 0 and 1. why not use NF_DROP, NF_ACCEPT instead?
