Subject: [PATCH 3.16 131/305] netfilter: x_tables: add and use
 xt_check_proc_name

3.16.63-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de>

commit b1d0a5d0cba4597c0394997b2d5fced3e3841b4e upstream.

recent and hashlimit both create /proc files, but only check that
name is 0 terminated.

This can trigger WARN() from procfs when name is "" or "/".
Add helper for this and then use it for both.

 - xt_hashlimit has only one check function
 - Adjust context]
