From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 681f130f39e10 ("netfilter: xt_socket: add XT_SOCKET_NOWILDCARD flag") added a potential NULL dereference if an old iptables package uses v0 of the match. Fix this by removing the test on @info in fast path. IPv6 can remove the test as well, as it uses v1 or v2.
