    netfilter: nft_flow_offload: skip dst neigh lookup for ppp devices
    
    [ Upstream commit 45ca3e61999e9a30ca2b7cfbf9da8a9f8d13be31 ]
    
    The dst entry does not contain a valid hardware address, so skip the lookup
    in order to avoid running into errors here.
    The proper hardware address is filled in from nft_dev_path_info
