Jamal Hadi Salim 1d856251a0 net/sched: act_mirred: fix loop detection
Fix a loop scenario of ethx:egress->ethx:egress

Example setup to reproduce:
tc qdisc add dev ethx root handle 1: drr
tc filter add dev ethx parent 1: protocol ip prio 1 matchall \
         action mirred egress redirect dev ethx

Now ping out of ethx and you get a deadlock:
