It only takes a relatively small patch that lets conn-track hash on a
skb->foo_mark, and allow that mark to be set on incoming packets
based on netdevice or whatever, (before the conn-track lookup is
done).

This is logically somewhat similar to using multiple routing
tables and has been working well for me for several years....
