The RETURN default policy is mandatory in user-defined chains.
Builtin chains must have one of ACCEPT or DROP.

So, with this patch, ebtables-compat ends with:

Command:			Result:

-L				Always RETURN for user-defined chains
-P builtin RETURN		Policy RETURN only allowed for user defined chains
-P builtin ACCEPT|DROP		ok
-P userdefined RETURN		Default policy in user-defined chains is RETURN
-P userdefined ACCEPT|DROP	Default policy in user-defined chains is RETURN
-N userdefined			ok
-N userdefined -P RETURN	Default policy in user-defined chains is RETURN
-N userdefined -P ACCEPT|DROP	Default policy in user-defined chains is RETURN
