Hm, yet another of those exotic deviations (from ip{6}tables) in
ebtables.

This -C is not supported by ebtables-nft, right? If so,
according to manpage, ebtables -C takes start_nr[:end_nr].

Maybe there is a chance to get this aligned with other ip{6}tables
tools by checking if optarg is available? Otherwise, really check the
ruleset?

BTW, I'm re-reading the ebtables manpage, not sure how this feature -C
was supposed to be used. Do you understand the usecase?
