Patch #1 switches the driver to use a unique and stable ECMP/LAG seed. This allows for consistent behavior across reboots and avoids hash polarization at the same time.
Patch #2 relaxes the FIB rule validation in the driver to allow the installation of rules that direct locally generated traffic (iif=lo). This does not result in a discrepancy between both data paths because packets received by the device would never match such rules.
