netsniff-ng: Skip duplicated packets on loopback device
When sniffing on the loopback device, each packet will be seen twice, once per direction. To avoid duplicates, explicitly skip OUTGOING packets received from loopback, if no packet_type filter is explicitly set.

e return value of the tryget routines is bool so the reference may actually be acquired but the routines return "false" which results in a reference leak since the caller assumes it does not need to do a corresponding percpu_ref_put(). This was seen when performing CPU hotplug during I/O, as hangs in blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait where percpu_ref_kill (blk_mq_freeze_queue_start) raced with percpu_ref_tryget (blk_mq_timeout_work).

However, conditions at the time of the race are count of PERCPU_COUNT_BIAS + 0 and __PERCPU_REF_DEAD and __PERCPU_REF_ATOMIC set. The fix is to make the tryget routines use an actual boolean internally instead of the atomic long result truncated to a int.
