Another possibility (more simple?) would be this:

int nf_hook_slow(struct sk_buff *skb, struct nf_hook_state *state)
{
        struct nf_hook_entry *entry;
        unsigned int verdict;
-       int ret = 0;
+       int ret;

        entry = rcu_dereference(state->hook_entries);
next_hook:
+       ret = 0;

Basically, make sure ret is set to zero when jumping to the next_hook
label.

Thanks!
