Subject: vrf saddr selection


In the output path we go:

	struct flowi4 fl4 = {
		/* needed to match OIF rule */
		.flowi4_oif = vrf_dev->ifindex,
		.flowi4_iif = LOOPBACK_IFINDEX,
		.flowi4_tos = RT_TOS(ip4h->tos),
		.flowi4_flags = FLOWI_FLAG_ANYSRC | FLOWI_FLAG_VRFSRC,
		.daddr = ip4h->daddr,
	};

	if (vrf_send_v4_prep(skb, &fl4, vrf_dev))
		goto err;

	if (!ip4h->saddr) {
		ip4h->saddr = inet_select_addr(skb_dst(skb)->dev, 0,
					       RT_SCOPE_LINK);
	}

So in the case where the source address is needed, this
inet_select_addr() call looks like useless work.

The route lookup already filled in fl4.saddr for you, why don't we
just use that?
