ebtables has a bug that prevents creation of rules with RETURN target, any attempt will result in an
RETURN not allowed on base chain
error even if the chain where you want to create the rule is a user defined chain.
Reproduction scenario:
root@OpenWrt:~# ebtables -N foo
root@OpenWrt:~# ebtables -A OUTPUT -j foo
root@OpenWrt:~# ebtables -A foo -j mark --mark-or 3 --mark-target RETURN
--mark-target RETURN not allowed on base chain.
My email client will probably replace tabs in the patch below, but it is a one-liner patch after all, easy to spot the actual
change.
