IMHO this attribute is inappropriate for <backend>....

I don't think that 'upstream' is really describing a property of the
backend.

This is expressing a traffic routing restriction for the 'user'
networking type. IMHO it should probably be using the existing
<source dev="xxxx"/> element, that is currently used by the
'direct' networking type.

Can we see about fixing this before release.
