You still have to scrub the skb mark at the correct points, otherwise
the ignoring egress may propagate beyond the "paired hook". I don't see
much difference in fragility TBH.

Speaking of ifb, doesn't it have an egress hook? And ingress on the way
out? IMHO the "ignore egress" mark should not survive going thru ifb.

Anyway, that's just my preference. Whatever you, Daniel and Lukas
decide together in the end is fine by me.
