netfilter: nf_nat: avoid double seq_adjust for loopback
Avoid double seq adjustment for loopback traffic because it causes silent repetition of TCP data. One example is passive FTP with DNAT rule and difference in the length of IP addresses. This patch adds check if packet is sent and received via loopback device. As the same conntrack is used both for outgoing and incoming direction, we restrict seq adjustment to happen only in POSTROUTING.
