netfilter: xtables: check for unconditionality of policies This adds a check that iptables's original author Rusty set forth in a FIXME comment. Underflows in iptables are better known as chain policies, and are required to be unconditional or there would be a stochastical chance for the policy rule to be skipped if it does not match. If that were to happen, rule execution would continue in an unexpected spurious fashion. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>
