[PATCH next v2 2/7] dev: Update packet dispatcher to pass l3_dev as an input device

[Mahesh Bandewar]

From: Mahesh Bandewar <mahe...@google.com>

netif_receive_skb_core() dispatcher uses skb->dev device as an
input device to all packet-handlers (e.g. ip_rcv, ipv6_rcv etc)
These packet handlers use this device reference to start processing
L3 phase of the packet-processing. This includes IPT hooks, ingress
route-lookup, and xfrm policy lookups etc.

This patch passes l3_dev as an input device and shifts L3 processing
from skb->dev to l3_dev (skb->dev->l3_dev).
