[ Upstream commit 77a92189ecfd061616ad531d386639aab7baaad9 ]
Replace EBUSY by EEXIST in the following cases:
- If the user adds a chain with a different configuration such as different
type, hook and priority.
- If the user adds a non-base chain that clashes with an existing basechain.
- If the user adds a { key : value } mapping element and the key exists
but the value differs.
- If the device already belongs to an existing flowtable.
User describe that this error reporting is confusing:

- https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1413
