You are sending to a local ip address, so the fib_lookup returns
RTN_LOCAL. The code makes dev_out the loopback:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next.git/tree/net/ipv4/route.c#n2773

(you are not using vrf so ignore the l3mdev reference). loopback device
has the logic to put the skb back in the stack for Rx processing:
