Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter fixes for net The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net: 1) Missing netlink attribute sanity check for NFTA_OSF_DREG, from Florian Westphal. 2) Use bitmap infrastructure in ipset to fix KASAN slab-out-of-bounds reads, from Jozsef Kadlecsik. 3) Missing initial CLOSED state in new sctp connection through ctnetlink events, from Jiri Wiesner. 4) Missing check for NFT_CHAIN_HW_OFFLOAD in nf_tables offload indirect block infrastructure, from wenxu. 5) Add __nft_chain_type_get() to sanity check family and chain type. 6) Autoload modules from the nf_tables abort path to fix races reported by syzbot. 7) Remove unnecessary skb->csum update on inet_proto_csum_replace16(), from Praveen Chaudhary. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
