Subject: [PATCH 1/6] netfilter: ebtables: fix wrong name length while copying to user-space

From: Santosh Nayak <santoshprasadnayak@...il.com>

user-space ebtables expects 32 bytes-long names, but xt_match names
use 29 bytes. We have to copy less 29 bytes and then, make sure we
fill the remaining bytes with zeroes.
