Subject: [RFC] Fix ip routing rules (partially revert b6c69d4b)

From: Ben Greear <greearb@...delatech.com>

Change 4465b469008bc03b98a1b8df4e9ae501b6c69d4b caused rules
to stop matching the input device properly because the
FLOWI_FLAG_MATCH_ANY_IIF is always defined in ip_dev_find().

This breaks rules such as:

ip rule add pref 512 lookup local
ip rule del pref 0 lookup local
ip link set eth2 up
ip -4 addr add 172.16.0.102/24 broadcast 172.16.0.255 dev eth2
ip rule add to 172.16.0.102 iif eth2 lookup local pref 10
ip rule add iif eth2 lookup 10001 pref 20
ip route add 172.16.0.0/24 dev eth2 table 10001
ip route add unreachable 0/0 table 10001

If you had a second interface 'eth0' that was on a different
subnet, pinging a system on that interface would fail:

 [root@...03-60 ~]# ping 192.168.100.1
 connect: Invalid argument

This patch partially reverts the problematic patch by
NOT defining FLOWI_FLAG_MATCH_ANY_IIF.  This probably breaks
the feature that the original author intended to add, and
it could easily be that the entire patch should be reverted,
so this needs review before applying.
