 This module attempts to match various  characteristics  of  the  packet
 creator, for locally-generated packets.  It is only valid in the OUTPUT
 chain, and even this some packets (such as  ICMP  ping  responses)  may
 have no owner, and hence never match.

So I guess it's locally originating packets only.
