Subject: [PATCH net] net: sched: act_ipt: check for underflow in
 __tcf_ipt_init()

If "td->u.target_size" is larger than sizeof(struct xt_entry_target) we
return -EINVAL.  But we don't check whether it's smaller than
sizeof(struct xt_entry_target) and that could lead to an out of bounds
read.

Fixes: 7ba699c604ab ("[NET_SCHED]: Convert actions from rtnetlink to new netlink API")

I haven't tested this.  Please review carefully.
