This patch is very small, it does not harm anyone I think.
However, please note that we've been discouraging people to use the
iptables blob interface for years.
This interface is prone to races (see the userspace lock and the -w
option in iptables) and the binary layout is obscure.
Not sure how advance you're in developing a userspace program using
this interface, if in early stage, I'd suggest you go for command (in
string format) pipe them to iptables-restore, which is what most
people do to implement third party software that generates rules for
iptables.
Thanks.
