Re: Matching metainformation cgroup fails on input, works on output.

[Vladimir Nikishkin <lockywolf@gmail.com>]

I have just tested it (again) by flushing the old ruleset and using the
following ruleset:

```
table ip filter {
	counter test-icmp-output {
		packets 3 bytes 252
	}

	counter test-icmp-input {
		packets 0 bytes 0
	}

	chain INPUT {
		type filter hook input priority filter; policy accept;
		meta cgroup != 4096 ip saddr 8.8.8.8 ip protocol icmp counter name "test-icmp-input"
	}

	chain OUTPUT {
		type filter hook output priority filter; policy accept;
		meta cgroup != 4096 ip daddr 8.8.8.8 ip protocol icmp counter name "test-icmp-output"
	}
}
```

As previously, the cgroup 0x001000 does not exist. The three outbound
packets are the three ping packets, and they were successfully replied
to.
