4.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Liping Zhang <liping.zh...@spreadtrum.com>
commit 6d19375b58763fefc2f215fb45117d3353ced888 upstream.
Justin and Chris spotted that iptables NFLOG target was broken when they
upgraded the kernel to 4.8: "ulogd-2.0.5- IPs are no longer logged" or
"results in segfaults in ulogd-2.0.5".
Because "struct nf_loginfo li;" is a local variable, and flags will be
filled with garbage value, not inited to zero. So if it contains 0x1,
packets will not be logged to the userspace anymore.
Fixes: 7643507fe8b5 ("netfilter: xt_NFLOG: nflog-range does not truncate
packets")
