Subject: Problem with xfrm interface and bridged devices

Hi there,

when using a xfrm interface in a bridged setup (the outgoing device is 
bridged), the incoming packets in the xfrm interface inherit the bridge 
info and confuses the netfilter connection tracking.

brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
br_eth1         8000.000c29fe9646       no              eth1

This messes up the connection tracking so that only the outgoing packets 
shows up and the connections through the xfrm interface are UNREPLIED. 
When using stateful netfilter rules, the response packet will be blocked 
as state invalid.

telnet 192.168.12.1 7
Trying 192.168.12.1...

conntrack -L

The attached patch removes the bridge info from the incoming packets on 
the xfrm interface, so the packet can be properly assigned to the 
connection.

Kind Regards,
Wolfgang
