This amended patch works for me (iptables-test.py passes except those
tests that I expected to fail due to some missing features in 3.14).

I also briefly tried 32bit iptables/ip6tables and that seems happy
as well. The reproduces for the two bugs fail with -EINVAL.

ebtables doesn't work (even ebtables -A INPUT -j ACCEPT fails), but
that should be solved by picking up
d26e2c9ffa385dd1b646f43c1397ba12af9e, "Revert "netfilter: ensure number
of counters is >0 in do_replace()" [ its a PARTIAL revert, so don't drop
the original patch ... ]

Subject: netfilter: x_tables: validate targets of jumps

commit 36472341017529e2b12573093cc0f68719300997 upstream.

When we see a jump also check that the offset gets us to beginning of
a rule (an ipt_entry).

The extra overhead is negible, even with absurd cases.

300k custom rules, 300k jumps to 'next' user chain:
[ plus one jump from INPUT to first userchain ]:

Before:
real 0m24.874s
user 0m7.532s
sys 0m16.076s

After:
real 0m27.464s
user 0m7.436s
sys 0m18.840s

Need to pass the start of the ruleset as extra argument as
t->entries won't work in 3.14 (its percpu and not even set
up for all processors at this point).
