In your patch, info->prev comes set to a value from userspace, right? commit 324318f0248c31be8a08984146e7e4dd7cdd091d Author: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue May 9 16:17:37 2017 -0400 netfilter: xtables: zero padding in data_to_user Since that patch above, the data area is zero'ed before dumped to userspace, so we would get a null info->prev, hence defeating the trick your patch relies on.
