Ah, thanks for that, I forgot to comment it :)

*Usually* it's sufficient to set net/ipv4/conf/all/rp_filter and
net/ipv4/conf/default/rp_filter because there are no interfaces
configured when rcS.d/S30procps.sh is called (and thus no other
subdirectories exist in conf/).
There is one case where I don't know if it's sufficient: when you
have / on nfs you need to configure at least one interface at kernel
boot.
