Date: Mon,  8 Feb 2010 18:10:31 +0100 (MET)	[thread overview]

commit dab1531a07ad7c5be4ebe715a3d08742f0c638e3
Author: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
Date:   Mon Feb 8 15:44:07 2010 +0100

    netfilter: xtables: compat out of scope fix
    
    As per C99 6.2.4(2) when temporary table data goes out of scope,
    the behaviour is undefined:
    
    	if (compat) {
    		struct foo tmp;
    		...
    		private = &tmp;
    	}
    	[dereference private]
