#20032: Custom Firewall Rules Only Load on System Reboot

Comment (by anonymous):
I've done further troubleshooting.
It appears that when making changes to existing NON-TCP/UDP/ICMP
forwarding entries in LuCI - that a reboot is required. This reboot is
required regardless if the entry is added in Custom Rules, or on the Port
Forwards menu.
How to recreate:
I created an entry for IP.PROTO-4 in the Port Forwards menu and hit 'Save
& Apply,' it worked. I went to edit the entry and selected 'Save and
Apply.' '''Despite LuCI showing the firewall having been edited, the
traffic was still going to the host specified before the edit was made.
This behavior was verified using Wireshark'''
In order to commit the change, I had to reboot the router, I verified that
the traffic was no longer going to the previous host, and that the new
host was receiving the traffic.
Prior to Backfire, reboots were not needed to commit NON-TCP/UDP/ICMP
forwarding rules.
