Subject: [PATCH 5/9] netfilter: nf_ct_expect: remove the redundant slash when policy name is empty

From: Liping Zhang <liping.zhang@...eadtrum.com>

The 'name' filed in struct nf_conntrack_expect_policy{} is not a
pointer, so check it is NULL or not will always return true. Even if the
name is empty, slash will always be displayed like follows:
  # cat /proc/net/nf_conntrack_expect
  297 l3proto = 2 proto=6 src=1.1.1.1 dst=2.2.2.2 sport=1 dport=1025 ftp/
                                                                        ^

Fixes: 3a8fc53a45c4 ("netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allocate 16 bytes for the helper and policy names")
