Subject: netfilter: x_tables: fix int overflow in xt_alloc_table_info()

From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 889c604fd0b5f6d3b8694ade229ee44124de1127 upstream.

syzkaller triggered OOM kills by passing ipt_replace.size = -1
to IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE. The root cause is that SMP_ALIGN() in
xt_alloc_table_info() causes int overflow and the size check passes
when it should not. SMP_ALIGN() is no longer needed leftover.

Remove SMP_ALIGN() call in xt_alloc_table_info().
