I think it is better to check the request as early as possible, no? This is
pointless to run the request down to gateway_forward_request(), which is queued
on the work queue and might need some time to be called and then return the
error to the client.

What is the benefit to check inside the gateway_forward_request instead of the
approch of this patch?

Thanks
