While ensuring that the destination address is link-local iff the source
address is would also be an option, it didn't seem too useful as the
destination address will be a multicast address anyways in "normal" VXLAN
configurations. If we really want to check this, I guess the valid
combinations are:

source link-local - destination link-local UC
source link-local - destination link-local MC
source global/... - destination global/... UC
source global/... - destination any MC

Does this make sense?

Thanks for your comments, I'll send a v2 soon.
