    netfilter: xtables: check for standard verdicts in policies
    
    This adds the second check that Rusty wanted to have a long time ago. :-)
    
    Base chain policies must have absolute verdicts that cease processing
    in the table, otherwise rule execution may continue in an unexpected
    spurious fashion (e.g. next chain that follows in memory).
