Currently, it is assumed that fallback packets will be from reprs. Modify this to allow an app to receive non-repr ports from the fallback channel - e.g. from an internal port. If such a packet is received, do not update repr stats. Change the naming function calls so as not to imply it will always be a repr netdev returned. Add the option to set a bool value to redirect a fallback packet out the returned port rather than RXing it. Setting of this bool in subsequent patches allows the handling of packets falling back when they are due to egress an internal port.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
