Subject: [PATCH 4.14 10/47] netfilter: nfnetlink_cthelper: hit EBUSY on updates if size mismatches

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@...filter.org>

[ Upstream commit 8971ee8b087750a23f3cd4dc55bff2d0303fd267 ]

The private helper data size cannot be updated. However, updates that
contain NFCTH_PRIV_DATA_LEN might bogusly hit EBUSY even if the size is
the same.

Fixes: 12f7a505331e ("netfilter: add user-space connection tracking helper infrastructure")
