net/sched: act_ipt: add sanity checks on skb before calling target

Browse source

[ Upstream commit b2dc32dcba ]

Netfilter targets make assumptions on the skb state, for example
iphdr is supposed to be in the linear area.

This is normally done by IP stack, but in act_ipt case no
such checks are made.

Some targets can even assume that skb_dst will be valid.
Make a minimum effort to check for this:

- Don't call the targets eval function for non-ipv4 skbs.
- Don't call the targets eval function for POSTROUTING
  emulation when the skb has no dst set.

v3: use skb_protocol helper (Davide Caratti)
