I'm afraid I'm not following you.
Where did you want to set saddr=0 ?

You're right.  But then we can't call ip_route_output in the case
where saddr is foreign but daddr is local.  Nor can we call
ip_route_input since the output will be ip_rt_bug.

In that case we need to use saddr=0, which shouldn't make 

any difference

with sane routing.

Makes sense.  But what about the case where saddr is foreign but
daddr is broadcast/multicast?
