Yes, everything works fine in that case. It's only when LRO packets are forwarded to another physical interface that things go wrong.
Now this is definitely broken because it fiddles with TCP packets in the middle, but still it should *work* in as much as making the packet go out. Well except that you need to fix up the checksum so that it only contains the pseudo-header on output. That's probably what you need to address if we failed in avoiding LRO on forwarded traffic.
