Thinking about it again, now that we have a new flag to signal the
desired behavior, why do we care if there is a local VXLAN device
listening or not? If 'VXLAN_F_LOCALBYPASS' is not set we don't want to
deliver the packet to a local VXLAN device even if one exists.

IOW, can't the diff simply be:

Unnecessary change. Please remove. Probably a leftover from previous
versions

The rest looks fine to me
