netfilter: fix crash during boot if NAT has been compiled built-in
(c7232c9 netfilter: add protocol independent NAT core) introduced a problem that leads to crashing during boot due to NULL pointer dereference. It seems that xt_nat calls xt_register_target() before xt_init(): net/netfilter/x_tables.c:static struct xt_af *xt; is NULL and we crash on xt_register_target(struct xt_target *target) { u_int8_t af = target->family; int ret; ret = mutex_lock_interruptible(&xt[af].mutex); ... Fix this by changing the linking order, to make sure that x_tables comes before xt_nat. Reported-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
