Title:
  security groups allows localhost (127.0.0.0/8) to pass

Status in neutron:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Host local IP addresses shouldn't be in source_ip for incoming
  packets. No exceptions.

  Current implementation of security groups, when user allow a wide
  range of IP addresses to pass, allow to pass 127.0.0.0/8.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Create rule in security groups which allows from 0.0.0.0/0
  2. send spoofed traffic with source 127.0.0.1 to instance (hping3 -a 127.0.0.1 target_ip)

  Expected behavior: no malformed traffic on instance interface.
  Actual behavior: Traffic with source=127.0.0.1 on instance interface.
