From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.du...@intel.com> This patch intoduces a slight adjustment for macvlan to address the fact that in source mode I was seeing two copies of any packet addressed to the macvlan interface being delivered where there should have been only one.
The issue appears to be that one copy was delivered based on the source MAC address and then the second copy was being delivered based on the destination MAC address. To fix it I am just freeing the second copy instead of delivering it up the stack using the same netdev as was already delivered to.
