It's known issue, see:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/netfilter-devel/msg23831.html

But we already resolved the problem for all of the extensions that
that email indicates.

The only two affected extensions so far I can track on the tree are
TCPMSS and CLUSTERIP.

CLUSTERIP is supersedes by xt_cluster, and it's known to have problems
with dynamic interfaces.

TCPMSS would be good to have access to it from nft_compat.

I'm attaching an untested patch to address this.

Subject: [PATCH] [RFC] netfilter: fix crash in CLUSTERIP and TCPMSS when used
 from nft_compat

Currently, we have two iptables extensions that cannot be used from the
xt over nft compat layer. The problem is that both need to real access
to the full blown ipt_entry to validate that the rule comes with the
right dependencies. This check was introduced to overcome the lack of
sufficient userspace dependency validation in iptables.

To resolve this problem, this patch introduces a new field to the
xt_tgchk_param structure that tell us if the target is executed from
nft_compat context.

The two affected extensions are:

1) CLUSTERIP, this target has been supersedes by xt_cluster. So just
   bail out by returning -EOPNOTSUPP.

2) TCPMSS. Relax the checking when used from nft_compat and make sure
   that we skip !syn packets in case userspace provides a wrong
   configuration. This allows us to use this feature from nft_compat.
