4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 21d5e078192d244df3d6049f9464fff2f72cfd68 ]
iptables-nft never requests these, but make this explicitly illegal.
If it were quested, kernel could oops as ->eval is NULL, furthermore,
the builtin targets have no owning module so its possible to rmmod
eb/ip/ip6_tables module even if they would be loaded.
