Netfilter targets make assumptions on the skb state, for example
iphdr is supposed to be in the linear area.
This is normally done by IP stack, but in act_ipt case no
such checks are made.
Some targets can even assume that skb_dst will be valid.
Make a minimum effort to check for this:
- Don't call the targets eval function for non-ipv4 skbs.
- Don't call the targets eval function for POSTROUTING
emulation when the skb has no dst set.
v3: use skb_protocol helper (Davide Caratti)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
