In your patch, info->prev comes set to a value from userspace, right?

netfilter: xtables: zero padding in data_to_user
Since that patch above, the data area is zero'ed before dumped to
userspace, so we would get a null info->prev, hence defeating the
trick your patch relies on.
Am I missing anything?
