[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.18 18/59] netfilter: nft_compat: ebtables 'nat' table is normal chain type

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Wed Nov 14 2018 - 17:38:37 EST


From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e4844c9c62a0fe47980d6c3d4b7a096a5d755925 ]

Unlike ip(6)tables, the ebtables nat table has no special properties.
This bug causes 'ebtables -A' to fail when using a target such as
'snat' (ebt_snat target sets ".table = "nat"'). Targets that have
no table restrictions work fine.
