	OK, I see that skb_padto is used only from the net drivers,
so it is not fatal that skb_copy_grow will not copy skb->tc_index,
so I hope DS9 will work

	Yes, the patch keeps each NAT connection bound to the
masquerade address and correctly uses the routing, usually for
multipath routes. Of course, in 2.2 a route cache flush leads to
much more problems (CPU cycles for rerouting) compared to 2.4.
