Florian Westphal e3b5e1ec75 Revert "netfilter: x_tables: ensure last rule in base chain matches underflow/policy"
This reverts commit 0d7df906a0.

Valdis Kletnieks reported that xtables is broken in linux-next since
0d7df906a0  ("netfilter: x_tables: ensure last rule in base chain
matches underflow/policy"), as kernel rejects the (well-formed) ruleset:

[   64.402790] ip6_tables: last base chain position 1136 doesn't match underflow 1344 (hook 1)

mark_source_chains is not the correct place for such a check, as it
terminates evaluation of a chain once it sees an unconditional verdict
(following rules are known to be unreachable). It seems preferrable to
fix libiptc instead, so remove this check again.

Fixes: 0d7df906a0 ("netfilter: x_tables: ensure last rule in base chain matches underflow/policy")

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
