====================
Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree. This batch
mostly comes with patches to address fallout from the previous merge window
cycle, they are:
1) Use entry->state.hook_list from nf_queue() instead of the global nf_hooks
which is not valid when used from NFPROTO_NETDEV, this should cause no
problems though since we have no userspace queueing for that family, but
let's fix this now for the sake of correctness. Patch from Eric W. Biederman.
2) Fix compilation breakage in bridge netfilter if CONFIG_NF_DEFRAG_IPV4 is not
set, from Bernhard Thaler.
3) Use percpu jumpstack in arptables too, now that there's a single copy of the
rule blob we can't store the return address there anymore. Patch from
Florian Westphal.
4) Fix a skb leak in the xmit path of bridge netfilter, problem there since
2.6.37 although it should be not possible to hit invalid traffic there, also
from Florian.
5) Eric Leblond reports that when loading a large ruleset with many missing
modules after a fresh boot, nf_tables can take long time commit it. Fix this
by processing the full batch until the end, even on missing modules, then
abort only once and restart processing.
6) Add bridge netfilter files to the MAINTAINER files.
7) Fix a net_device refcount leak in the new IPV6 bridge netfilter code, from
Julien Grall.
