Good point, this changes behaviour for br_netfilter case, we no
longer call nf_reject_fill_skb_dst() then due to the fake dst.

I don't think br_netfilter is supposed to do anything (iptables
-j REJECT doesn't work in PRE_ROUTING), and we should not encourage
use of br_netfilter with nftables.

What about adding a followup patch, targetting nf, that adds:

if (hook == NF_INET_PRE_ROUTING && nf_bridge_info_exists(oldskb))
	return;

?

After all, there is no guarantee that we have the needed routing
info on a bridge in the first place.
