Subject: [PATCH net] ipv4: fix broadcast packets reception

Currently, ingress ipv4 broadcast datagrams are dropped if the
ingress interface lacks an ipv4 address. This is caused by
multiple issues:

- in udp_v4_early_demux() ip_check_mc_rcu is invoked even on
  bcast packets

- ip_route_input_slow() always try to validate the source

This patch tries to address both issues, invoking ip_check_mc_rcu()
only for mcast packets and calling fib_validate_source() only
if the in_device has an address, at least.

Fixes: 6e5403093261 ("ipv4/udp: Verify multicast group is ours in upd_v4_early_demux()")
